The Historical Society of Hilltown Township hosts an art show at the circa 1800s Strassburger Farmstead/Homestead, from noon to 4 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 15.
Contemporary artists exhibiting are Jane Ramsey, watercolor painter, and Mark McCoy, oil painter, who paints outside and inside. Ramsey is the owner of Simon Fine Arts Gallery in Dublin. McCoy exhibits his oil paintings at juried shows and at galleries.
Weather permitting, McCoy will demonstrate plein air painting at this show.
Artwork of past Hilltown residents also will be displayed.
