BENTON HARBOR — Art can be found everywhere. And maybe it is this philosophy that sums up the “Water, Wood, and Stone: Markers of a Place” exhibit of Benton Harbor images created by local artists David Baker and John Gatto.
The exhibit will be on display at the Benton Harbor Public Library portion of the Benton Harbor Arts Association Art Hop that will take place from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. Friday. The works of Baker and Gatto will be on exhibit in this location, but there will be artists featured in a variety of locations throughout the city.
