On Saturday afternoon, some friends and I dropped in at the grand opening for the Tumalo Art Works sculpture garden. Turned out to be quite the party –- with a good-size crowd filling both the gallery space and the sculpture garden.
Outside, guests were invited to watch sculptors  J. Chester “Skip” Armstrong and Jud Turner in action while strolling among a number of eye-catching large-scale pieces from a variety of artists. There’s a nice cross-section of work represented in the garden, as well as the gallery.   Here’s a closer look at the gallery and garden:
