Blue Heron in Flight

Adriance Furnituremakers highlights work by local artisans in the Showroom Gallery. Each piece shows the maker’s style. Each one brings character to the space.

John Magnan shifted to art after an early retirement from a technical career. The change led to studies at the Maryland Institute College of Art. Magnan later earned an MFA in sculpture from UMass Dartmouth. Solo exhibitions have appeared in several locations. Permanent installations stand in hospitals and public spaces. Magnan’s sculpture is also featured at the UMass School of Law. A national collaboration with Eli Lilly and Co. honors clinical trial participants through public art.

Showroom open 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Tuesday through Friday. Phone number is 508-993-4800.

A portion of this sale will be donated to Buzzards Bay Coalition to support efforts to protect the bay.
