Art at Adventure
We like to showcase local artists every month!
Samantha Perasic is our featured artist at Adventure North in March!
Samantha Perasic or “Toasty” believes that everyone is an artist! While being a working artist she also hosts private, laid-back art classes for every level of artist including children. Toasty’s art is forever evolving, from very realistic pieces to more wild and aggressively colorful pieces. You’ll find paintings, digital art, and even stained glass in her craft space and on her social media. As a local Fredericksburg artist she is so excited to be displaying her art at Adventure North!

Anthony is the featured artist at Adventure Eagle Village for March!
Meet our March artist for eagle village!
Anthony J. Silver, a native of Fredericksburg, VA, was born in the 60’s and developed his passion for art at an early age. Portraiture is his niche; however, he experiments with ceramics, painting, scrapbooking, and DIY crafts. He is also passionate about music and plays the guitar. He teaches drawing workshops and hosts paint parties for libraries, churches, fundraisers, and special events.

In 2014, Silver obtained his Bachelor of Liberal Studies in Studio Art and Art History from the University of Mary Washington (UMW). He displays his work in various galleries and venues around Virginia including The Speakeasy (Richmond), the John J. Wright Educational & Cultural Center Museum (Spotsylvania), Darbytown Art Gallery (Fredericksburg), Professional Barber Institute (Spotsylvania), Adventure Brewery (Fredericksburg and Stafford), Rappahannock Regional Library (Spotsylvania, Fredericksburg and Stafford locations) and Montclair Library (Dumfries). He even crossed the border to exhibit in the Braswell Memorial Library in Rocky Mount, North Carolina.
As a student, Silver held his first major exhibit at the Back Door Gallery
in Fredericksburg in 2014. He also collaborated with UMW campus pastors from the Center for Faith and Leadership for the “theme of the month.” In 2018 Silver completed a series of presidential portraits to promote patriotism for the Fredericksburg City Public School Division.
Silver placed 3rd in the drawing category in the 67th Annual Fredericksburg Fine Arts Show and Sale. He was chosen as the featured artist for the New Life in Christ Church Arts Festival in Fredericksburg. Silver cites his faith in God and family as the inspiration for his work. He aspires to influence others to pursue their dreams no matter the circumstances.
Anthony’s work will be this entire month.
