Tom's 1950's Recycled Rainbow Truck will make its debut at this reading and signing event!
Author and sculptor, Tom Noll, has been exhibiting with Zenith Gallery for the past two years, and currently in our 36th Anniversary exhibition.  We are delighted to host a book signing with Tom, author of The Bicycle Fence. The first of Tom Noll's "Trash to Treasure" series, The Bicycle Fence is about a boy, Little Tommy, and his new found experience with recycling. The book teaches children the importance of recycling by using creative story line and colorful illustrations by Brandon Fall. 
A recent Mom's Choice Award® Gold Winner for Children's Picture Books: "Trash to Treasure" Series * Recycling Creatively with L.T. The Bicycle Fence is a brand new educational and amusing children's book about going green and recycling creatively to help save our planet. Mom's Choice Award is an international awards program that recognizes authors for their efforts in creating quality children and family-friendly media, products and services.
This delightful first book in Tom Noll's "Trash to Treasure" Series, based on events from the author's own childhood, will inspire young readers to reinvent, re-purpose, recreate, reuse and recycle in ways that are both practical and fun. Think, Act, Live, and Be Green For Our Future!  


Author, Tom Noll is also a sculptor, landscape designer, avid nature lover, recycler, and advocate for going green  He is a first time writer who lives in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area. Originally from Somerset, Ohio, Tom also lived in Manassas, Virginia, where he was known for his imaginative white bicycle fence at his home, and where he decorated them for major holidays.  Many of Tom's Sculptures are in Zenith Gallery's current shows.
Currently there are "Bicycle Fences" in three locations,  in Washington, DC at the Heart of Bloomingdale park at Rhode Island Avenue, at 1st Street NW, Alexandria, VA, and in Somerset, Ohio.

36 years, where has the time gone, hundreds of art shows, 1000's of clients, vast new technologies in the art world. The artists still knock my socks off and creativity is thriving. How Washington and the world have changed. The artists keep on creating and astounding us at every turn. Art is more important than ever in this media over exposed world. That the artists can come up with an original thought and execute it in an original way fascinates me and keeps me enthusiastic and dedicated to the artists, my clients, Washington and the art world. Come celebrate with us and experience art, art and more art. The entire Zenith Family thanks you all for keeping us in business for all of these years.
