Fall Colors Fine Art Show
Written By: Zach Claxton - Highlands-Cashiers Art League | Issue: October - 2022
The Art League of Highlands-Cashiers closes out its event-laden 2022 season with a busy October.
October marks the end of the Art League’s 2022 active season. Where did the time go? It seems like only a few weeks, not months, ago that we welcomed abstract artist Laura Moser as our April guest speaker at the first of our seven monthly meetings. In subsequent months, talented artists from various disciplines gave interesting presentations about their work. 2022 has been an eventful year for the Art League. We have enjoyed significant growth. Sixteen new members have joined the Art League so far this year. We sponsored a very successful fine art show in Sapphire Valley in July, and we have joined with other non-profits in the Highlands area to assist with children’s education. A new web site has been developed, offering a better visitor experience. Quite a year, and we’re not quite ready to fold up the tent. On October 15-16, the Art League will sponsor its annual Fall Colors Fine Art Show at the Highlands Rec Park. Talented regional artists will have on display and for sale two and three-dimensional original artwork, including paintings in all mediums, wood pieces as well as glass art, ceramics and one-of-a-kind jewelry. This year, the show will feature a new program for children, where prizes will be awarded, thanks to the generosity of Blick Art Supplies. This same event at the Summer Colors show was a big hit with children, parents and artists alike. Bring your family and friends to this well-done art show. The final regular meeting of 2022, open to the public, will be held on October 24 in the Bascom’s covered pavilion at 5:00 P.M. This is a special meeting to celebrate the end of the season. Rather than having an outside speaker, Art League members will do a “show and tell” presentation of some of their own artwork. The meeting will be preceded by a pizza party at 4:30 P.M. This free event is open to the public. A good time will be had by all. For more information about the Art League and its activities, visit artleaguehighlands-cashiers.com. by Zach Claxton,
