Ooooh man! Art stuff is going on! Coming up in Feburary is a show, “The Love of Art and Friendship”, the week of the 14th and the first fund raiser a Fashion Show at the end March. Do your art and submit…….., please. Plan on the Fashion Show, details and tickets coming soon.
There was a convergence in the art force, a summit in fact. The whole art department of the Lorain city schools met with the Lorain Arts Council to workout some cooperations and events and activities to start in the near future. The point is to show this community how revelant the arts are to Lorain. And how valuable are our art resources including teachers, art programs, parent-teacher involvements, community art activities and kids. Kids in art is key because kid artist grow up to be working creatively in every field. It’s the diff between doing a base job and doing a job with inspired innovation, creative achievement and profitable results ie PROGRESS!
We now have a library at the art gallery. Small but growing collection of books on various art subjects. We also have a couple of older computers we are finding uses for. So, if you have older but not too old PCs and like to donate them, we will consider their usefulness or recycle. Please don’t dump junk, we are thinking about computer art classes. Donation of art materials and frames are also welcome.
The arts are hands on for the doers of art but the arts are also a spector sport in the sense (the five senses that is) you can see, hear, taste, smell and feel the arts. Stop in during gallery hours, see what Lorain can do.
