Pastel Society of NC: August 2024 Newsletter
Hello everyone,
I hope everyone is having a wonderful and productive summer!
Now that we have closed the Statewide Exhibition we move on to what’s coming up next for members of PSNC.
Now is the time to consider entering this prestigious online event. The prospectus for this can be found at Online Juried Shows. The deadline to enter is August 14.
We are also planning an All Member Show at the Golden Belt Art Gallery in Durham, NC. I visited there yesterday and it is a beautiful place. You have received a form to complete of artwork you would like to exhibit there. The deadline for submitting this form is August 15. The show will run in September and there will be a grand reception September 20, from 6-9 pm. Typically, this is a very well attended event. And by the way, there will be no commission for sold work. More information will follow in early August. But plan on submitting soon.
During our August 10 Zoom meeting we will all have a chance to renew and revive basic skills and along with that we will have some open forum discussion. Please plan on joining in on this as well as future presentations. Your participation is important! Albert Handell is scheduled for September 14, 1-3 pm in the afternoon so mark that on your calendars.
We want to welcome Cecile Ramirez who is coming on as Membership/Communication chairperson. Thank you Cecile for stepping up! Going forward we will need someone to coordinate our monthly programs. Tim Williams has done an excellent job for the last two years and we thank you Tim! This is a great job because you get to be in touch with all the major pastel artists. Consider volunteering for this important work. And thank you in advance!
Please don’t hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or concerns, daphneboder@gmail.com
Joy Always,
Daphne Boder
PSNC President
