December Round-Up: Celebrating our Collective of Artists, New Beginnings, and Community
Exciting End of 2023 - wrapping up the year with art and community
We’re rounding out the year with our final reveal of our first class of Virtual Gallery Artists, a phenomenal podcast discussion about the symbioses of art and community, and celebrating our many partners. Thank you for your support and kindness this year as we have expanded our scope, and we look forward to exploring more exciting changes in 2024. Happy Holidays from all of us here at Artsville Collective!
December Featured Artists
Our final report, featuring three artists of nine from our first Virtual Gallery cohort expands on the range of talent here in WNC. Joseph Pearson brings movement and culture across a breadth of mediums. Georgia Deal’s creativity in print and papermaking is stunning - plus she teaches classes! Finally, Max Cooper, an Asheville wedding photographer, stuns us with an eccentric approach to photographing the timelessness of the Blue Ridge Mountains.
The season has arrived, but there is still time to view our Holiday Catalog or stop by our Virtual Gallery live exhibit at the Ferguson Family YMCA. See some of our artists’ creations in person, or even better, purchase a piece for a loved one to find underneath the tree!
Not Real Art Grant for Artists
There’s still time to apply for our West Coast affiliate, Not Real Art’s, grant. Benefits include funds, lots of marketing exposure and more. The deadline is weeks away, January 1, so spread the word to your favorite artist, friends, or apply yourself! See what other grant winners say about this unusual opportunity at notrealart.com.
