Osprey Village, in partnership with The Plantation Artists’ Guild & Gallery at 94 Amelia Village Circle in the Spa & Shops at Omni Amelia Island Plantation, is hosting a Valentine art showcase on Friday, February 17 from 5:30 to 8:00 p.m. A Valentine rose will be given with every purchase.
The Gallery will unveil a new collection of artworks in watercolor, acrylic, oil, pastel, mixed media, photography and sculptures. Many of these pieces will be offered for sale to the public for the first time at this event. Guest artist Jack Allen, who specializes in abstracts, will be featured in addition to the local gallery artists.
Guest artist Jack Allen lives in Jacksonville, Fla. His work, titled ‘Multiple Layers of Bliss,’ denotes his love of abstract expression and will be on display and available for sale at the event.

His work will be shown at the Plantation Gallery from February 8 through March 10, and he will discuss his paintings and artistic process during a talk which is open to the public on February 24. Guests are encouraged to drop by the Valentine art showcase at their convenience and enjoy the gourmet hors d’oeuvres and fine wine provided by Osprey Village, an Amelia Island retirement community. Gallery and guest artists will be on hand to discuss their works.
Artworks from the Guild’s collection are also on display and available for purchase in Osprey Village’s wellness center.
