Co-Presidents’ Message 2/23
You may remember we sent a proposal out to a number of venues.
Goddard Riverside Arts Center at 647 Columbus Ave. was the first to respond affirmatively for an exhibit this year. The West Side Arts Coalition’s proposal is a group exhibit entitled, Saving Nature-Saving Ourselves. We need to truly understand that we, the people, are part of nature. Caring for nature is self care. If we are ecologically wise, and good to the planet, it will sustain us as well as it has in the past. Finding our way to brave change is a difficult challenge for nations and for individuals, but absolutely necessary. We can accomplish this if we are strong enough to hear and listen to one another. We can then find a way to work together to save our planet. This fine arts exhibit will include paintings, collage, and multimedia, with each artist sharing an individual perspective. At this time, the theme of the show is especially relevant and urgent.
We now have dates for the exhibit. We will install the show Saturday, April 1st. The delivery of your work will be between 10am - 12pm. We hang the art from 12 - 3pm. Our Reception is Monday, April 3rd from 6 - 8pm. Many of you sent jpegs of your artwork for the theme Saving Nature-Saving Ourselves. These works will be considered as will as new submissions from the same artists as well as newly interested people. We will choose one work from each artist unless the art is 12” x 12” or less, including the frame. In that case you will have two works. Your art must relate to the theme to be considered. As it stands now the show will be through April and May and possibly June. The show fee will be $40. There will be no formal sitting schedule.
Virtual Shows will continue for the WSAC Newsletter. The March Virtual Exhibit is
entitled Heaven & Earth. Please send your jpegs now!
As always have a richly creative month and please share your discoveries with the
Newsletter’s Member News or Virtual Show.
