Public Art Displays
We will have an art display at the Jones Public Library in Dayton, TX (Dayton Community Center, 801 S Cleveland St, Dayton, TX 77535) on February 23, 2024, at 11:00 a.m. Any paid member who has helped us in some way is eligible to show their artwork with us. Please be sure your art is ready to hang, with a wire hanger on the back.
We are also planning a display at the Atascocita Library in March 2024. This library has a display case for art, so those of you with 3-dimensional art may be able to participate. Any 2-D art should be able to stand up leaning on the back of the case. Details to follow.
Kingwood Arts Festival
Our group has an opportunity to display our work for sale at the Kingwood Arts Festival at Town Center on Saturday, April 20, 2024 from 11:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Before we sign up, though, we need to know how many of you are interested. We should be able to display a number of small works in our tent. In addition to art to show, we would also need a few volunteers to man the tent in shifts during this time. If you have interest in showing your art there and/or supervising the booth, please let us know at the meeting (or by email if you can’t make it to the meeting).
