The legendary work of Mary Win

PRINCETON — Art lovers and former students of longtime Princeton artist Mary Win Walter Norris will have another chance to secure a piece of the artist’s history for their own.

Dozens of art pieces done by Norris will be sold at auction Saturday at the Prairie Arts Center, 24 Park Ave. East in Princeton. The original artwork will include, in part, oil paintings and watercolors, sketches, sculptures and ceramics. A preview showing of the artwork will be on the same day from 10 a.m. to noon, and from 1 to 3 p.m. at the Prairie Arts Center. A wine reception begins at 5 p.m., and the auction is set to begin at 6 p.m.

Family member Holly (Walter) Jordan, formerly of Princeton but now of the Champaign area, has worked for several weeks organizing the sale of the artwork. Auctioneer Tom Tumbleson will handle the auction.
