18th Spring Art Show

Big art show coming up right here in Sun City Roseville this weekend.  The public is invited and welcome and so our club does its best to get everything looking pleasing to the eye.  We will have approximately 190 paintings available for viewing and purchase in our ballroom, and there are 38 artists represented.  Artists are professionals and some hobbyists, the standard is way high in my opinion and I have seen a lot of shows and a lot of art.

I am so happy to be a part of this event and proud of  our club and the work that we do in retirement.  We keep ourselves busy with our art and also we coordinate with schools and galleries in the community to help keep art available for kids.  Last year the community give back was with a local elementary school and this year it was coordinated with a local high school.  

Of course, my kids and grandkids will be here to cheer Nana on.  They're proud of me as I am of them and l look forward to parading them around too.



Here are my planning pages and some of the items I have created to make the show a good one.  Those little letter/number tags are for setting up the panels that will be very strategically placed in the ballroom so that the art is easily seen.  The floor plan was designed by one of our members and I have simply been a part of placing the art on paper so that we will have an easy time of hanging this Friday.  

We're ready to hang the show on Friday and meet and greet the art appreciating public on the weekend.  Yay!
