The Outsider Art Show at the Union of Maine Visual Artists Gallery inside the Community Television Network (516 Congress St., Portland) highlights work characterized by its “urgency, authenticity, mysteriousness, eccentricity, and indifference to current fashion.” Amen to that! It opens today (noon to 5 p.m.) and continues through Sept. 1, with a reception on Aug. 7 during the Art Walk. 549-7516. umvaonline.org.
