Artists’ Reception

artEAST Exhibitions presents “Anything Goes – Within Reason” at Blakely Hall over the holiday season. This juried exhibition invited artEAST Members to submit two-dimensional artwork for consideration. The subject matter was left wide open, as to attract a broad range of material from some of our best established and emerging artists.

Artists’ Reception
Wednesday, November 16, 2016
6:00-7:30 pm
Blakely Hall

It is always exciting to visit an “open” show. There are often some unexpected treasures to be discovered, as the work is not chosen to fit a particular theme.

This year, artEAST is also honored to have Fred Lisaius, working artist and art educator, as a guest juror. Fred will select three art pieces from the show to highlight and talk about during the Artists’ Reception on November 16^th.

Fred is interested in exploring our connection to the natural world and each other, and is represented locally by the Patricia Rovzar Gallery. He is also an art educator and teaches classes in watercolor, acrylic and drawing. He says it is very rewarding to share his knowledge and passion for art and the art making process.

Please come by Blakely Hall Monday – Friday, 8 – 5 to view this group exhibition of 20 talented local artEAST Member artists, and plan to meet them at the reception.

“Anything Goes” includes work by: Gail Baker, Pamela K. Beer, Jill Drllevich, Diana Grant, Wanda Hickman, Pamela Holderman, Bonnie Johnson, Hiral Joshi, Jerry Kaufman, Kristi Kincheloe, Andrea Lewicki, Vikram Madan, Priyanka Parmananad, Lia Santini, Ann Elizabeth Scott, Cathy Simpson, Shelley Stroeve, Jan Tervonen, Katie Knoll Weaver, Season Yoshida
