“Midnight Menagerie” Opens at Morgantown Art Party

Midnight Menagerie, a new art exhibit by Danielle Nyland, opens this Friday at the Morgantown Art Party. The exhibition brings together a collection of darkly whimsical, creature-driven artworks that celebrate the strange, the nocturnal, and the beautifully uncanny.

The exhibit will feature original pieces by local artist Danielle Nyland and invites viewers into a world where folklore, wildlife, and the supernatural converge. Designed as an atmospheric, moonlit journey, the exhibition highlights work that blends eerie elegance with bold imagination, showcasing creatures both familiar and fantastical. From glowing-eyed cryptids to shadow-soaked animals, the show explores the magic that emerges when the natural world crosses into the uncanny.

“Midnight Menagerie” opens on First Friday for the Arts in August at the Morgantown Art Party, in the historic district of downtown Morgantown. As always, the venue offers an accessible and energetic gallery environment designed to support emerging, experimental, and community-centered artists.

The Morgantown Art Party continues its mission to uplift local talent, foster creative exchange, and provide space for boundary-pushing exhibitions that enrich the region’s arts culture.
