How do I find a community pottery/ceramics art center?

Posted by admin on June 27th, 2010 and filed under community arts center | 1 Comment »

Ive been wanting to get back into some pottery again for some time, but if you know anything about the tools necessary for pottery you ll know that stuff isn’t cheap; pottery wheels, kilns, etc. So i thought maybe there might be some kind of community art center around here in Vancouver, WA where i could do some pottery, but i do not know how to go about finding where a place like that might be. any suggestions?

use a search engine, looks like you may have to go to portland.

Posted by admin on June 17th, 2010 and filed under community arts center | 22 Comments »

Leslie is one bomb girl, and fierce (sickening fierccceeee…) at that too. This is her first time teaching BZ class and let me tell you, her class was insanely fun and challenging.

If you don’t know who Leslie Scott is, she started dancing in Arizona at ASU, where she started the ASU Hip-Hop Coalition Dance Company and directed it for 5 years. She currently teaches at the EDGE Performing Arts Center and Millenium Dance Complex.

Montauk Artists’ Association Art on the Green (PART ONE)

Posted by admin on June 9th, 2010 and filed under community arts center | No Comments »

13th ANNUAL JURIED ART SHOW
ON THE MONTAUK GREEN 2007

OUR SHOW HAS ACHEIVED THE HIGHEST RATING. 75 ARTISTS FROM ALL OVER OUR COUNTRY AS WELL AS FRANCE, ISRAEL, AND CHINA WILL COME TO OUR HAMLET BY THE SEA TO SHOW THEIR WORK AND OFF IT FOR SALE.

The third weekend in August is our Annual Outdoor Juried Art Show on the Montauk Village Green. Started in 1994, this was our first fund raising event and it continues to be a major summer event in Montauk, drawing buyers from New York City and all the Hamptons. We invite professional artists to buy space, set up their tents and show their works of fine art in oil, water color, acrylics, pastels, graphics, mixed media, sculpture and photography for sale. We only have enough room on this Green for 70 artists and our jury chooses the best.

The Montauk Artists’ Association was started as an effort to broaden the already existing art talent in Montauk and to bring to all artists and could-be-artists, an avenue by which they could enjoy group art activites, receive art instruction and show their work.

Originally, classes were offered in the evening, twice a year. Attendance was excellent and the students who attended these programs became the original members of the Montauk Artists’ Association.

In 1998, the association acquired the Long Island Railroad’s Montauk Station as our Headquarters. We have named the building the Montauk Community Arts Center because we are an inclusive organization and we welcome all who are interested in the arts.

To structure our activites, committees were established. For specific information any of the chairpersons can be contacted directly.
