December Second Sundays

It’s blustery and cold out, but inside at the Art Center we’ve been keeping bodies warm and busy with Second Sundays! Teaching artists Jessi Walsh and Elke Claus kept things lively through a printmaking and a ‘Still Life in Motion’ workshop! And on top of that our amazing students were able to share their work with visitors at our Holiday Student Art Sale, which was a smashing success. Thanks to all our students for making it a fun time for everyone. Stop by next month on January 11th for our next Second Sunday.

Good Luck Blake!

Our Director of Education, Blake Bradford, has moved on from the Art Center and taken up the position of Director of Education at the Barnes Foundation in his native Philadelphia. We will miss Blake and all the work he has done over the years here at the Art Center, but wish him the best as he moves on to a fantastic new opportunity and a great organization. Take care, Blake and don’t forget to write!

Oh so much to see and do

For anyone who got a chance to swing by the Art Center this past Sunday, you may have noticed it was standing room only throughout much of the day. With Second Sunday, a Student Art Sale and an artists’ reception all going on at once, our halls were filled with a spectrum of art makers, art appreciators, and art vendors. Sort of like a visual arts circle of life.

If you missed out on the festivities, these pics should catch you up nicely…
