Pelham
Art Center is pleased to present its highly popular Faculty and Student Showcase. This annual exhibition features both
two and three dimensional work in a variety of mediums by the Art Center’s
distinguished teachers and enthusiastic students. Exhibited work ranges from
charcoal to oils, black and white photographs to digital prints, and mixed
media to ceramics. The Faculty and
Student Showcase provides a great opportunity to view and collect original
work from emerging and established artists.

Since
its founding in 1970, the Pelham Art Center faculty has grown as the Art Center
has increased its course offerings to embrace new media while continuing to
provide instruction in traditional techniques. From beginners to accomplished
artists, students of all ages who want to explore their creative potential have
flourished by working with Pelham Art Center’s teaching artists.  More than 1,300 students, from three to ninety-plus
years old, attended over 100 visual art classes and workshops offered at the
Art Center this past year. These classes are taught by more than thirty art
educators, many of whom are participating in this exhibition alongside their
students.  This free exhibition is on
view from July 12 through August 9, 2013.

The
Opening Reception will take place on Friday, July 12, 6:30-8:00 p.m.
This event is free and open to the public. During the opening, visitors and
prospective students of all ages may participate in a free all-age art workshop
held in the studios. In addition, the public is
invited to meet the teaching artists to discuss course offerings and their work.
