Mini Pop-Up Gallery

Attention Art League Members!  Our pop-up show at The Well in Royse City is just around the corner.  It will be held June 13 – June 22.  The Well is located at 103 East Main Street.  

If you are interested in participating, here are the details. 
Cost:  A $ 10 entrance fee for each artist will be charged with money going into the general budget of the Art League and should be paid at time of submission.  

Description of Art:  Because our space is very limited, each artist can enter only one piece with a size limit of 11 x 14 inches unframed (154 square inches).   However, please submit an alternate piece as well, and, if for some reason, we have additional space, that piece will also be displayed.   

Time of Submission: Deliver your piece to Marcie Penland on June 11 between 3:00 – 5:00 p.m. The first ten members to submit their work will be the ones whose work is displayed. When you deliver your work, you will need to complete a disclaimer and art tag listing your contact information. Those forms will be available at time of delivery. Email artleaguegreenville@gmail.com for the address.

Set-up/Take-down:  Marcie Penland and Angela Mattingly will take care of setting up and taking down the art.  During the time period it is on display, we will let you know when/where you can pick your art up once the show is over.

Attend:  Please be sure and patronize The Well during time of display.  The owners are being very nice to do this for us!  It is a family-friendly, small restaurant with great food, frequent live music, and a lot of foot traffic.  This particular show is on a small scale, and maybe in the future, we can expand it.  It’s certainly a chance to immediately expand your art’s viewing audience!

Alternatve To Demo

Our demonstrator had to cancel for the meeting tomorrow (Wednesday April 17 at 3 PM). As an alternative, I am inviting each artist attending to bring a piece of art they would like to talk about. We will have an informal discussion about art. This would be in addition to work you bring for the Art Challenge.

There is a good chance it will be raining during our meeting time, but the high winds and severe weather are not predicted until late tomorrow evening.
