TUPPER LAKE — An exhibit featuring the work of sculptor Peter Thomas opens Saturday, Aug. 1, at the Tupper Arts Center, 106 Park St., Tupper Lake.

Thomas is an accomplished wildlife sculptor from New York City who also has a residence in Tupper Lake, where he has spent many summers enjoying the Adirondacks.

This will be his first-ever one-man show, and he indicated that it is particularly meaningful to him to present it in his beloved Tupper Lake. Peter’s work includes clay and bronze sculptures and other mediums. He will be at the Arts Center from 2 to 4 p.m. on Aug. 1-2, to meet with visitors and demonstrate sculpting.

The exhibition will run Wednesday through Sunday, noon to 4 p.m., Aug. 1-16. Admission is free.
