Welcome to the
President's Update
Greetings!
I think I can safely say this has been a crazy Spring...
The 2020 year started with a fantastic joint show with the Vermont Pastel Society. Thank you to all at the VPS for the work required to facilitate the show and to Lisa Regopoulos as PSNH liaison and to Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center for providing a wonderful venue to display our work.
While our/your opportunity to visit the show was cut short due to the pandemic, we are working on the coordination to retrieve the art still on display.
Jeff Ventola's and Karen Isreal's workshops have been postponed due to the limits on social gatherings. We will be updating this information as the National Social Distancing guidelines ease.
I do hope this time sheltered at home has produced some fantastic art, and we want to see it! What better way to see it than to participate in our annual Members’ Show? We are again adherring to limits on social gatherings, so it will be exhibited in an online format. The Libary Arts Center & Studio in Newport, NH will be hosting our show! Click the link below for more information.
We are still researching our options for the 2020 It’s Pastel! Show, so stay tuned.
Happy Painting to all!
Tom Bradley, President
