Art+Talk:+What+a+trip! http://conta.cc/1pMgjOc

Wednesday June 18 at 5:30 pm. This program, entitled “Artist: Promote Thyself!”, is a not-to-miss opportunity to understand what it takes to get the word out about your work:
Don’t miss what has to be one of ChiVAA’s most valuable Meetings with a Message for artists. It’s at 1078 Gallery on Wednesday June 18 and it’s all about how to promote your art. Dolores Mitchell will attempt to squelch the all too common anxiety artists experience when writing statements. She’ll give tips on a creative approach to statements that counteracts fear of failure. Then, Jason Cassidy, the Chico News and Review Arts Editor, will share his “receiving end” perspective on materials that artists send him. He’ll give plenty of examples on what works, what does not, and why. The talks begin at 6 pm but the 5:30 social hour will allow you to chat with old and new friends in a spacious, air-conditioned setting–and, with inventive snacks.

Make sure you print it out (a printable version is here: Printable Uptown map June 2014) and create for yourselves a little itinerary to ensure you don’t miss anything. All five venues this time have outdone themselves and the evening cannot possibly disappoint you. We’re into our summer hours of 5 to 8 pm and it’s lovely to be able to take advantage of the whole thing in the full light of day. Mild temperatures are predicted for the weekend, but I guarantee hot art! Hot art that’s cool, that

There's nothing like the end of the school year and the beginning of summer to get us all remembering what's important in life. Time, for one thing. The extra daylight in the summer is a gift. Let's use some of it Friday night to go gallery and studio hopping in one of our most artistically rich nei…

The pace of exhibits, workshops, paint-outs and special events at Avenue 9 has accelerated from a canter to a gallop.  Right now we're showing Delbert Rupp's monumental vessels and sculptures (watch for his May 31 demo!) - plus a sampling of work by our Guild Artists.
