SWVAEA Educator's Art Show

Before you get caught up in your students' art, it's time to think about an exhibition for your artwork. We will have the SWVAEA Educator's Show at WVTF in Roanoke for members. The hanging is October 1st. We will be collecting artwork at our workshop and meeting in late September (more info to come) and will also be willing to rendezvous with those of you that are too far from Roanoke to bring your work. You just need to email annepfeiffer@verizon.net to arrange a rendezvous pick up of your work before October 1st.

The open house will be October 16th from 5-7. Edible Vibe Cafe will cater the event and the Mike Mitchell Trio will entertain us. We can thank Jennifer Villa and WVTF for the catering, music and publicity of the show.

Your 2D artwork must be framed, or if a canvas, have hanging wire attached. There is also room to exhibit sculpture and fineart crafts. On the back of your 2D work (or attached to your 3D work) attach a note with name of artist; NAEA membership number, contact information including mailing address, email and phone; title; medium; dimensions; and price (or NFS). We will have a number next to each work of art with a list at the front door. Please also add a note if you give us permission to take a photo of your work for our blog and/or a future VAEA newsletter. If you have an artist statement or postcard please include several copies for display in a binder, as well as to pass out for those interested in your artwork.

Please think about participating, especially those of you far from Roanoke. This exhibit is one way to remind the community of our presence and to build relationships, especially important during this time of budget cuts. You can also get recertification points for participation and we will mail you a certificate.

If you have anymore questions, email annepfeiffer@verizon.net.
