Main Street Nevada held a private invitation only show of their gallery Friday night which was well attended. Above, Ken Hacker, of Hacker Jewelers, parades one of the pieces of art for auction Friday night while Carl Johnson takes on the role of auctioneer. This patriotic feather piece went for $120. Artwork remained on display in the Heroes Building on the Square for public viewing on Saturday. The Main Street Nevada "Gathering of Artists" was the second annual regional art show and auction conducted by the group. A fund-raiser for the community development group, the art show features artists from several states. This year's show featured many local artists as well as many returning exhibitors who participated in last year's event.
