Current Exhibition: Spring Festival
April 25 – May 9, 2024
With the Special Robeson County Artists Exhibition now open at the Contemporary Art Museum Raleigh, we are turning our heads homeward with the Spring Festival Exhibition at the Guild House. The theme for Spring Festival is simply Spring, that beautiful time of year here in North Carolina, full of sunshine, flowers – and pollen, but let’s not dwell on that! Stop in and see how each artist interpreted the season. There are oils, acrylics, collages, watercolor, and even a needlework piece representing the fiber-arts, a first for one of our exhibitions!
Judge Babette Augustin was the juror for this exhibition – and we were all pleased to have her join us at the reception! Speaking of which, I hope you all had the chance to hear accordion player Betty Fisher fill the air with music! It was a very special evening.
The Spring Festival Exhibition opened April 25th with the reception, an update on the Robeson County Artists Exhibition at CAM, and recognition of donors and Artist awards. This exhibition is a little shorter than most – the Spring Festival Exhibition runs through May 9, 2024. Still time to stop by if you missed the opening,
And while you are here at the Guild House, check out the shop! There are new, wonderful, affordably priced pieces available just in time for Mother’s Day! Donna Freeman has an array of new glass art pieces ranging from $10 on up, and M.M. Andrson has some lovely cards just right for those special people in your life. Be sure to take a look at the two lovely pastels that M. M. Anderson entered in Spring Festival. Her large original pastel artworks are often the base for her cards! It’s fun to see how they started.
See you soon!
