Betsy Brayer and Carl Zollo designed an elaborate village for the highly successful 1974 Medieval Faire.
Carl Zollo
Carl Zollo, a well-known Rochester metal sculptor and longtime friend of MAG, died November 6.
At MAG, Zollo lent his artistic expertise to a number of major fund-raisers, including the 1974 Medieval Faire (a joint venture of the Gallery¹s Women¹s Council and the Junior League) and the 1988 "You Take the Cake" celebration of the Gallery¹s 75th anniversary.
One of his sculptures, from the 1969 Rochester-Finger Lakes Exhibition, was purchased for the Gallery¹s permanent collection.
