Third Friday

May’s Third Friday open studios event includes a new exhibition by one of Cleveland’s most prolific living painters. Renowned Cleveland-based painter Matthew Dibble debuts Puzzled Bipeds, a new series of abstract works at Tregoning & Company. Arguably one of the year’s most anticipated local art exhibitions, Dibble’s show features new work re-discovering themes and compositions Dibble pioneered but set aside decades ago. Paying homage to his close friend and fellow painter Scott Miller, the exhibition returns Dibble to a style developed by both artists for the first time since Miller’s tragic death in 2008. Dibble’s exhibition opens during Third Friday from 5 to 9 p.m. today, and remains on view through July 1. Individual gallery hours may vary. On the building’s third floor, Survival Kit hosts free live music at 9 p.m. There’s plenty more to see and do throughout 78th Street Studios. Admission is free. (Usmani)
