Dear fellow Hanoverians:<\/p>\n
OPEN STUDIO ARTISTS<\/p>\n
AN EXHIBITION OF WATERCOLORS<\/p>\n
JOHN CURTIS LIBRARY<\/p>\n
Now through APRIL 30, 2011<\/p>\n
OPENING RECEPTION – SATURDAY APRIL 2nd at 2 p.m.<\/p>\n
A few years ago, a group of women watercolorists were attempting to find a
\nlocation where they could get together weekly to paint. After a search for
\nappropriate facilities through many towns, they discovered the Plymouth
\nCenter for the Arts, on North Street, in Plymouth Center. The director of
\nthe center agreed to give them the use of a room on a weekly basis, for an
\nindividual donation per week. <\/p>\n
This original group has expanded to approximately ten women and has now been
\nmeeting for over three years. The artists are from New Bedford, Falmouth,
\nPlymouth, Norwell, Duxbury, Marshfield, Hanover, and Abington. They meet
\nto paint, help each other, share ideas, encourage new approaches, and attend
\nexhibitions. This is their first group showing. The Open Studio is held
\nevery Tuesday at Plymouth Center for the Arts, and anyone working in water
\nmedia is welcome to join. They meet at 11 a.m. and hold the studio until 3
\np.m.<\/p>\n
The participating artists in the Open Studio Artists Exhibition are Maureen
\nBrookfield, Audrey Coughlin, Betty Danker, Lynn Debbs, Wendy Hale, Isabella
\nHoell, Kay Leahy and Ginny Wilson. There are a total of fifty-one paintings
\nin the exhibition representing a variety of styles, interests and
\napproaches. Each retains a unique method of expression. Many of the women
\nare juried gallery artists at South Shore Art Center, the Plymouth Center
\nfor the Arts and the Cape Cod Art Association. There are a few members of
\nthe New England Watercolor Society. All of the artists participate in the
\nshows held by the local art associations, such as North River Arts
\nAssociation, Duxbury Art Association, Scituate Art Association, Braintree
\nand Weymouth Arts Associations as well as participating in other local
\nevents.<\/p>\n
