City of Dover issued the following announcement on February 23.
The Dover Arts Commission seeks local artists and businesses for the next round of Dover Art Beat exhibits and urges the public to visit the current Art Beat installations.
The Dover Arts Commission's Art Beat program encourages local businesses to display local art, provides area artists with alternative venues to display work, and gives the public more opportunities to experience art. The program collaborates with local businesses, the Greater Dover Chamber of Commerce and Dover Main Street to connect business and visual artists.
Participating Art Beat businesses have found the exhibits to be a positive experience. Dupont's Service Center is currently exhibiting its second Art Beat installation with artist Alicia Milewski.
"Alicia's work has brightened our waiting room and given the place a new look," said Dave Dupont. "Thank you for allowing my business to participate in the Art Beat program."
