Arts October! starts Friday at City Hall

Arts October!

Get inspired! Find your inner artist! Create art! Artists in Action, professionals and you!

Ann Blanch and Sue Williams will kick off Arts October in the Shoreline City Hall lobby on Friday, October 3 10:00am -3:00pm.

They’ll be demonstrating Sumi and pastel painting, unique crochet and more which you can watch, discuss and even try for yourself.

Two painters will fill out the City Hall lobby schedule. Lake Forest Park watercolor artist Kathy Collins will be painting, and helping you paint, on Wednesday, October 8th from 1:30 - 4:00pm. and Amy Pleasant will set up her “studio” where you can watch her paint with acrylics, on Tuesdays, October 14 and 28th from 10-3. She’ll be working on a slightly abstracted still-life painting this year.

A new location for 2014 is the Spartan Recreation Center lobby. They will host Shoreline printmaker April Richardson on Tuesdays, October 7th and 21st, noon-2 p.m. and Sumi and pastel painter Ann Blanch and crochetmeister Sue Williams on Friday, October 17th. They will be working on their own work but you’ll be able to try your creative hand as well.  These are great opportunities to watch professional artists in action and ask lots of questions. Please stop by!
