Monthly Meetings
Meetings Cancelled
We are certainly facing a difficult time in our country and in the world. We have to be grateful that the experience of seeing, hearing and creating art offers us respite from the worries surrounding us.
The HAL Board has decided that the wisest move is to cancel our Goldenbells Exhibit and our May meeting. We plan to resume HAL’s activities in the fall, starting with a September meeting. In the meantime, let’s share art any way we can. If members send Rosemary Serfilippi a photo of one of their paintings, we will post it on the website. Another sharing idea would be to exchange a photo of your work with a fellow artist and then critique each other. Don’t forget that you can go outside to paint or draw, as long as you keep your distance from others.
Also, the internet is loaded with videos on artists, techniques and analyses. Try the Yale Art Gallery or the Met. Take a free online course at MOMA. In fact, why don’t you tell Rosemary about a video you have seen that you think others would enjoy, and we will put its location on the website.
We wish you much good health and good cheer during this stressful time.
