Come celebrate the spirit of the season with us!  Starting October 6th and running for 4 Mondays through October 27th, Kathryne DeLorme will instruct on how to create a life mask of your own face with a plaster gauze cast, papier mache, and embellishing materials.  The class will include “mask and mirror” play, a slide show, and a display of masks from various cultures.  The classes meet from 6:00 to 9:30 pm; the $75 fee includes materials … just in time for Halloween!  For more information or to register contact Kathryne at 442-7850.

Calling all Volunteers! The Holiday Gift Fair and Artists’ Challenge is approaching quickly and more volunteers are still needed to perform tasks such as cashiering, sitting at vendor’s tables for a few minutes to give breaks, sitting at the food and kids’ activity table, greeting people at the door and giving them a program, and various other jobs … for the Artist’s Challenge we need people to paint and hang shelves, hang the artwork, cashier, and repaint the gallery afterward. If any of these jobs appeal to you, or if you know someone who would be interested in helping out, call Jules at 442-8413 or email at jules@inkpeople.org.

This event requires each participating artist to create 15 NEW works of art within a 30 day period. Each piece is then offered for sale for a set price, $30, $45, or $60, dependent on size; the sizes are 5×7, 8×10, or 11×14 and all 15 of the pieces have to be the same size. Artwork may be 2 or 3 dimensional, as long as all of the pieces fit the size requirements. All artwork will be sold at the Artists’ Challenge Art Show & Sale starting Saturday, December 6th and running through Saturday, December 13th. Collaborations may only be done if EACH of the artists contributes to EACH of the 15 pieces of artwork. Artists will receive 2/3 of the selling price of the artwork. You have until Tuesday, November 4th to register and all artwork should be received by Wednesday, December 3rd from 11:00 am – 4:00 pm.
