# Worthington Area Art League – announcements 4/19/19 #

Starts at 6pm with appetizers.  Dinner at 6:30 followed by presentations to scholars.  Art teachers from each of the three Worthington high schools are asked to choose a senior student who is an outstanding artist and who plans on furthering his/her education in an artistic field.  Students will bring pieces and talk about their work.

Volunteers for set-up should be at the Griswold at 5:30.

Remember TO PARTICIPATE IN THE WORTHINGTON ARTS FESTIVAL WITH WAAL YOU MUST BE A MEMBER OF WAAL AND VOLUNTEER AT THE FESTIVAL

JUST A NOTE – WE ARE NO LONGER SERVING COFFEE AT OUR MEETINGS AND DINNERS.   We throw away more than half of what we make and have to start set up very early in order to have it ready on time.  So if you need a cup-o-joe  please stop on the way and pick one up or bring one from home.  

Dear WAAL colleagues,

  For those of you who were not at the meeting this month I wanted you to see the opportunities to display your art in community venues.

Please look over this sign-up sheet (see attachment) and send Howard Van Cleave (Email: myfatherthefox@gmail.com) an email indicating which venue and month(s) you would like to sign up for.  When you send me your request I will send a confirmation email or let you know that it is already taken.

I have 20 paintings on display at Grandview Grind coffee shop 1423A Grandview Ave until the end of April. 

Dear WAAL Members,

I want to announce a one-day workshop I’m presenting on Saturday May 11, entitled Vivian’s Water Method with Pastel, from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM with an hour break for lunch.  I will demonstrate and then will guide you through the process.  We will meet in the Upper Arlington Senior Center Building #1 (the address is 1945 Ridgeview Road).  Please contact Elise Kendrick at 614-583-5331 (UA Parks and Recreation) to register.  If you would like more information please call me at 614-451-6254.  For other classes and information please visit my website:  vivianripleyart.com

Dear Art Leaders,

Sawmill Wetlands Educational Area is committed to providing outdoor experiences for kids of all ages.  With that in mind, we are trying something new.

The June 1st Sawmill Saturday will focus on artists in nature and provide an opportunity to create or share art that captures the wonder of nature.

Young visitors will be provided paper and media to create their own piece of art.  More experienced artists are invited to bring their own easels and materials to find a place on the boardwalk or program area.

The attached flyer provides the details.  You may change the Word document to fit your organization.  Feel free to call me with questions or suggestions on how to make this a better event.

Thanks!

I have been receiving messages from people asking me when will I give workshops this year. I just finalized my schedule and I will be teaching a couple of workshops this year.

Attached you will find a handout that provides some preliminary information on when the workshops will take place.

Will it be possible for you to send it out to the Worthington Art League members and Central Ohio Plein Air Group? Each class will consists of a maximum of 14 students.

Thanks you so much for your help!

Have a nice evening.

Aida
