Coeur d’Alene’s Art Spirit Gallery will celebrate a couple milestones on July 14: the gallery’s 20th anniversary and 200th show.

A celebratory exhibit will feature more than 100 works by dozens of the gallery’s artists, including new pieces from Mel McCuddin, Harold Balazs and Steve Adams. Other participating artists are Katherine Nelson, John Thamm, and Deborah Schwartzkopf.

There will be a reception at the gallery, 415 Sherman Ave., from 5-8 p.m. July 14 as part of Coeur d’Alene’s Second Friday Art Walk.

The gallery was founded in 1997 by Steve Gibbs, who died in December. The Art Spirit is now owned by Blair Williams.
