Art Guild call for submissions for showcase

The Island Now

The Art Guild, located at Elderfields Preserve, 200 Port Washington Blvd., Manhasset,  invites all member artists to submit artwork for the “2015 Members Showcase.” Non-members may become members at the time of registration. 

This annual exhibit has traditionally showcased the wide ranging and varied styles of the TAG membership — from abstract and modern to more the traditional. Watercolor, oils, acrylic, sculpture,  pastel, drawing, mixed media, collage, photography, encaustic, and prints (i.e., etching, silkscreen, lithographs, monotypes) are all represented.

All current members, including students 14 and older, are invited to submit one artwork. There is no need to submit images, although registration is required. Entry is on a first-come, first-served basis.  

For more information, registration form, or to register on line, please visit The Art Guild’s website at www.TheArtGuild.org.

The show will be on view from Saturday, May 16 through Sunday, June 28. Gallery hours are Saturdays and Sundays from 1 – 5 p.m. or by appointment. 

A Garden Party Artists’ Reception and Awards Ceremony will be held on Sunday May 17 from 3 to 5 p.m. Awards of merit and the annual Terry Shkuda Award for Broadening Creative Pursuits will be presented.

The Guild also announced that classes for children and adults will be resuming, as well as upcoming workshops: Silkscreen Monotype with Stephanie Navon-Jacobson on May 30-31, Plein Air Workshop with Howard Rose on June 13-14, and The Art of the Still-Life with Gregg Kreutz on Sept. 19-20.
