Pastel Society of NC

There’s a very special show coming to the Town of Cary Art Center from March 22-May 15: COLORS OF CAROLINA: ART by the BOARD of the PASTEL SOCIETY of NORTH CAROLINA (download the PDF flyer)

This event is especially fun for me. It’s been a long-held goal of mine to thank PSNC volunteers in some special way. This seemed the perfect opportunity to showcase these PSNC treasures for their tireless – and uncomplaining – contributions to our mutual benefit. It’s a standard I want to do on an annual basis.

Luana Luconi Winner, Anne Kiefaber, Toni Lindahl, Diff Whitmore, Pearl Cohen, Kathy Pruett, and Sheryl Daniels are featured. Jane Steelman, BF Reed, Phyllis Leistikow and Daphne Border were not able to participate, though we thank them equally.

These members transformed our pastel society into a top-rated organization. If you are proud to have PSNC on your resume, it is these ladies (and many others) who set the stage. Accomplished artists, they are also accomplished volunteers!

This show is in gratitude to them for years of tireless work on our general behalf. Volunteers are often the heroes of any organization. I’ve been a member of PSNC since 2016 and I’ve witnessed several members tackle the same responsibilities year after year. It’s an amazing feat for which we are all truly grateful. We hope you may join their ranks. ~ Emily Thompson
