The April Exhibition at Seven Stars Gallery, “Art and Artists of the Foothill Theatre Company,  is an appreciative and honoring retrospective of the works of two artists, Ralph Fetterly and  George Cloud for the Foothill Theatre Company.

The FTC was founded in 1977-2009 by Diane Fetterly, together with Bruce and Leslie West to provide a vibrant professional theater company for Nevada County.

Based in Nevada City, at that time a small and charming foothill town, which now, 30 years later can’t be called small, but still manages to be charming,

the group brought together an extraordinary and enthusiastic group of talented actors, costume designers, set designers and builders, prop makers, lighting technicians, musicians and

volunteers to present ambitious productions of Shakespeare, The Hobbit, Lion Witch and Wardrobe and other more serious works in the theater repertory, winning many awards and a

place in Nevada County’s arts history as a springboard and a standard setter for many subsequent theater company’s  excellent productions.

Ralph Fetterly, Diane’s husband, provided elegant set designs and George Cloud designed most of the colorful and iconic poster art for the FTC’s 30-year existence.

The phenomenon of the big theater in the small town wouldn’t have been the same without the talent and dedication of these two artists and gentlemen

Exhibition reception will be on Sunday April 14^th 4-7pm

Refreshments will be served at the Gallery 210 Spring St. Nevada City
