Frank Habbas Art Show
May 25, 2024

Frank Habbas Art Show

The Hen’s Nest will be hosting a reception on Saturday, May 25th (3:00-5:00pm) to celebrate their latest solo exhibition based on the paintings of Frank Habbas. The show will run through June 2nd.

At 91, after a fulfilling commercial art career and seven decades of painting without ever showcasing his work, Frank Habbas is suddenly on a roll. Having presented a very successful first solo exhibition this past February, the nonagenarian is following up quickly with a second solo exhibition – this time in Washington Depot.

In addition to his most recent work which tends to be more abstract, the exhibition will showcase more of his earlier pieces, reflective of his background as a comp illustrator.

When asked why he decided to continue exhibiting his paintings, Habbas replied, “Sharing my work has opened up a lot of interesting conversations. I realize now that I want to share it as much as I can while I’m still here.”
