My favorite season is almost here…. Fall! It means beautiful fall colors, pumpkins, apples, new clothes, cooler temps, and possibly the end of mowing!
With all of these good things, opportunities for our art work are abundant! Of course, the $10 Miniature Fundraiser Sale will begin Nov. 14th. Funds raised help cover expenses during the slower winter months. Please donate as many as possible! Another opportunity is donating a painting to the Adult Easter Seals “Fall Festival”. On Oct 16th, a Silent Auction is part of the Festival, with proceeds supporting programs, which our Chris Thompson is a participant. If you have a donation, please leave it in front of the bookcase. After the meeting, I will deliver them to the center.
The next Gallery Show Change is Oct. 26th-27th. As always, 4 framed, 4 unframed, 7 minis, and 8 cards…plus, 5 ornaments. Ornaments are open to non-exhibiting members. Heather requests the minimum price be $10.
Diane Bay will be Artist in Residence at Indiana Dunes State Park, the last week of Sept. and first week of Oct. What an honor! She also represents PAPA Gallery…aren’t we proud of her? I have asked for pictures.
Becca Mueller-Williams and Harrietta Harper are recognized in two magazines! Becca’s art story is in ARTSCO, displayed on the bulletin board, with Harrietta’s painting on the final page of Paducah Life! Congrats to both of you.
Thanks to Cindy and Suzanne for promoting Cars, Guitars, and Retro vibes. Thank you, for participating in this “Show in a Show”. The display will be available until the end of Oct.
It’s time for our monthly meeting, Sept. 29th, 7:00 at the Gallery. Susan Edwards will have the program, “You Made the Art, Now What?” She will offer simple ways to help your art find a buyer. Susan is an excellent promoter, so be there to listen and learn! The Challenge is “Painting of a Door” and for Oct. “ Painting of Eggs”.
Featured Artist for October is Chris Thompson. We will have a reception, Oct 9th, beginning at 1:00. Please come and help us celebrate his show! Thanks, to Carol Hudson, for her excellent show in September!
Lou D. Tillson will provide refreshments following the meeting.
Better get busy! As always, thanks, for all you do for PAPA.
