If you prefer, checks may be mailed to the DAC at 120 Morris St, Durham, NC 27701. Kindly make donations payable to the Durham Arts Council, and mention the Arlene Hyman scholarship in the “notes” section of your check.
Herb Slapo awarded PSNC Member Emeritus
The Board of Directors of the PSNC recognize the dedication and unwavering service of Herb Slapo to our organization over a span of almost twenty years. They have voted to award him with the title of PSNC Member Emeritus.
As an early member of the PSNC he was instrumental in changing the organization from the Pastel Society of Orange County to the Pastel Society of North Carolina. Through his participation as president, vice president, treasurer and publicity chair he has helped to shape and grow the PSNC. He is viewed as a mentor and gifted teacher. His critiques over the years have helped many of our members evolve into successful professional artists. His keen eye and gentile approach have become an integral part of the PSNC.
We hope that Herb will be willing to help us continue to evolve in the years to come!

To complete the member artist’s profile section, those members who wish to be included will need to email the following information. It would be helpful if all of the artist’s information and photos could be included in one email with attachments:
–A photo of the artist. These should be at normal resolution, and the file should be re-named with the artist’s name.
–A photo of a pastel painting that best represents your main body of work or style. The photo perameters for the artist’s photo also apply for the photo of the painting–normal resolution, with the file re-named with the title of the painting.
–Your website address
–Up to 6 sentences that briefly describe your pastel work. This should be a brief paragraph designed to give someone that is visiting an exhibit a first impression of you, similar to a personal introduction. Do not include biographical information or awards and memberships. These will be available from your provided website.
—If you need some suggestions for ideas about this paragraph, consider things such as: why you like pastels, your motivation as an artist, what inspires you, whether your surroundings influence your subject matter, etc.
