\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014ANNUAL STUDENT EXHIBIT UPDATE<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
It\u2019s now the 11th, but if someone wasn\u2019t paying attention, this is the last day to commit to the show. \u00a0See list below.<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
This is the biggest show we\u2019ve ever had with 31 exhibitors! \u00a0<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n
DATES:\u00a0<\/span>
TODAY \u2013 Commit to Show<\/span>
April 14 \u2013 Titles and prices or NFS of 2 paintings to exhibit<\/span>
May 5 \u2013 Paintings delivered to me<\/span>
May 13 \u2013 5:00-7:00 Opening party and silent auction at Bramhall\u2019s Country Store, 2 Sandwich St, Plymouth<\/span>
Show will run for a month<\/span>
\u00a0<\/span>
EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW:<\/span>
Any student who has had classes with me over the past year or so is welcome to put 2 new pieces in the show. They need to be framed and ready to hang.\u00a0 You can get 8.5\u00d711 document frames at the Dollar Store. This is a great way for emerging artists to see their work hanging in a public place. Artists are welcome to put a price on their work, though most chose NFS (Not for sale). I recommend $20- $30 for the kids; Bramhall\u2019s gets 10%.<\/span>
\u00a0<\/span>
AUCTION: We are making paintings of whales and dolphins to auction off to benefit WDC \u2013 Whales & Dolphin Conservation\u00a0http:\/\/us.whales.org<\/a>. (Last year we raised over $500 for ERDG!)\u00a0 This is a great way for students to see how they can use their talents to benefit the greater good.\u00a0 Students don\u2019t have to donate their work, but I encourage it.\u00a0 Starting bids are $10 per piece (except mine is $50) I take care of the framing. The works will be auctioned off at the opening on May 13.<\/span>
\u00a0<\/span>
OPENING is Friday, May 13, 5-7:00 at Bramhall\u2019s Country Store, 2 Sandwich St, Plymouth where we have a fun party.\u00a0 Jim and I provide a bunch of pizzas, and everyone is encouraged to sign up to bring finger foods or kids\u2019 drinks.\u00a0 I\u2019ll be sending out an email with a sign up list, also posting at the blog where you can sign up in comments. I\u2019ll provide paper plates and such.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
