First Friday

A pink, lacy dress adorned with sparkling crystals sits on display for today's First Friday viewing of local artists from 6 to 8 p.m. at the Creston: Arts gallery in the restored Creston Depot. The dress and artwork in the background were created by Sarah Waigand, a student at Iowa State University in Ames studying apparel, merchandising and design. She plans to become a technical designer for an established company and eventually open her own business selling her own designs. The artist reception, titled "Incongruity," is for Waigand and Levi Eblen, who has included his black and white darkroom photography. (CNA photos)
