Join us at Brenda McMahon Gallery on Friday, July 1 from 5-9pm for an evening celebrating the spiritual and aesthetic beauty of the human body at Gulfport's Second Annual Body Beautiful themed First Friday Art Walk. Last year's event was one of the liveliest art happenings of the year in Gulfport and we look forward to again celebrating the human form in all its richness and splendor.

Painter Judith Villavisanis makes her debut as July's Artist of the Month as part of the festivities, showcasing her vibrant paintings of the human form and other works. Judith has been painting in the region for over 40 years and has been commissioned by art collectors throughout the country for her brilliant, classic and eye-catching paintings.

Live music by Gale Trippsmith & Joey Interrante will greet visitors to the Gallery beginning at 5:30, providing a melodic backdrop to take in and celebrate the human body. We hope you'll follow the tunes and celebrate Body Beautiful with us!
