Walkover Gallery juried show results and information

Greetings, everyone.

The results are in for the juried show at Walkover Gallery. There were only 20 entries, so the gallery decided to jury everyone in. Four paintings were selected as having "special merit". Names of participants will be forthcoming.
This is quite disappointing considering how many members live in the area.

However: Please be sure to attend this opening if you possibly can, and bring a contribution for the snack table. So far, there have not been any volunteers!!
For now, let Karen Lueders know if you can bring something- information below:

Opening reception: Friday, September 12, 5 – 8pm. VWS will provide food. The gallery will provide all beverages.

Karen Lueders/Walkover Gallery
15 Main St.
Bristol, Vt. 05443

Everyone should have received their "hard copy" newsletters by now. Take note of the following upcoming events:

WATERCOLOR WORKSHOP with ROB O'BRIEN
Date: Saturday, October 4, 2008.
Place: Woodstock, Vermont, Unitarian Church
Times: 9:30 AM-4 PM
Fee: $55.00
Contact: Rob O'Brien rjoartist@yahoo.com
(802) 263-9394

1. This class will be limited to 15 participants
2. The fee is $55.00, but we are asking for another $15.00 or more voluntary contribution to offset the cost of renting the building. This is still a very reasonable price for an excellent opportunity to work with an excellent instructor, a much-celebrated artist, and….one of our very own!

2008 Fall Artists Getaway Weekend, Oct. 16-19

Take a long weekend for just painting on location in
the White Mountains. All skill levels are welcome.
This will be our
fifth fall weekend at the Bartlett
Inn. Pinkham Notch, Crawford
Notch, The Kancamaugus, North Conway and a thousand
painting locations from old buildings to sweeping
mountain views are within a short drive. You can
paint alone or in a group. If it is your first trip
to the area others can point you toward your painting
preference. In bad weather we have found locations to
get under cover or paint at the Inn.
