So you have taken art classes, practice every day, created some great pieces, but you have never exhibited your work. Why not? If you have fun creating your art and then showing it to friends and family, why not show some of it to total strangers? You can, by submitting your work in the 19th Annual Members’ Art Exhibition of the North Penn Arts Alliance. The North Penn Arts Alliance host 2 annual shows a year. The first one is opening to the public on April 25th, but you need to have your work completed, framed and wired so that we can hang it. All work submitted must be ready to hang and it must be delivered to the Elm Terrace Gardens, 660 North Broad St, Lansdale, PA. (Please use the 7th Street entrance to deliver your works.) Artworks can be delivered between 3:00pm & 7:00pm on April 22, 2013.
You must also be or become a member of the North Penn Arts Alliance which has been encouraging artists and those that love the arts with opportunities to create, learn, network and grow in a supportive environment for over 25 years. The members of the North Penn Arts Alliance takes pride in providing an outlet for preserving and promoting artistic growth and culture in our community. We are an organization of artists for artists and it doesn’t matter what style or medium you use. We have members that range from full time artists, art instructors, those that like to dabble and those that like to be among the artists and learn from what is done during a workshop or presentation. Our artists will use anything from oil paint, acrylic, or watercolors to paint or charcoal, pencil, or ink to draw, some will use pastels to draw or paint a wonderful world, while others will photograph the world around them. We even have members that will create three dimensional pieces using wood, stone, metal, even ceramics. So join us on the wonderful journey of art and start showing your work.
For the Spring show the art work is judged for prizes in six different categories. Our Judge for this show is Jennifer Hansen Rolli. Jennifer is a renowned artist from Bucks County. Her work is in many private collections and she is one of four regular artists that exhibit at the Silverman Gallery in Doylestown.
All work with the exception of three dimensional should be framed and wired on the back so that it can be hung. Absolutely no saw-tooth hangers are allowed. If your work is on paper it should be matted, protected by glass, framed, and wired. If you are exhibiting a three dimensional piece you should also provide a display pedestal. Works cannot exceed 36 inches in height or width. For more information about the show or the North Penn Arts Alliance, please visit us at www.northpennarts.org or call us at 212-393-9110.
So, take the leap and show your art.
