Peter presented off of slides, and walked us through both his art-making process and the intended communications of his work. The focus of his presentation was <u><i>The Collage Journal</i></u>, his carefully preserved, numbered & dated Strathmore paper pads and how he exhibits them.<br />

our friends in the Contemporary Art Group (CAG). Many of us are
longtime members of both groups, but if you are not familiar with CAG,
they are a membership art community based out of the Watchung Arts
Center whose focus is on exhibitions. CAG averages 10 member exhibits
each year in a variety of venues around Northern NJ.<br />
<br />
PLEASE NOTE THE NEW LOCATION AND DATE OF THIS EVENT, which was
previously scheduled for October 15th at the Westfield Public Library.

Our Fall 2017 - Spring 2018 Schedule<span style="background-color: white; color: #202020; font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 16px;">Mark your calendars for an exciting 96th year of art. We have been doing this longer than any other organization in New Jersey, and this year looks to top them all!</span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #202020; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 16px;" />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #202020; font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 16px;">The 2017-18 season is going to be a year of collaborations: we are partnering on specific events with the Contemporary Art Group, Friends of Mindowaskin Park, the Downtown Westfield Corporation, Friends of the Westfield Library, Juxtapose Gallery, South Avenue Arts, and Limani Grill. It promises to be a great year!</span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #202020; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 16px;" />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #202020; font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 16px;">Please note that we have listened to you and shortened our events: they will now be only 2 hours long, running from 1-3pm. Also note that we historically aim to schedule our events on the third Sunday of the month.</span><br />

This means that 100% of your membership dues - and donations - go into our events, NOT into management expenses and overhead. Even with more than 100 dues-paying friends & members, our costs for insurance, guest speakers, and venue rentals far exceed our annual income from dues. We make up the difference by applying for event-specific grants and by holding an annual fundraising event.</span><br />

The proceeds of the more than 130 tickets that were used in part to cover the venue rental, insurance, and food and drinks - and also provided a much-needed boost to our bank accounts as we prepare for another season of free events.</span><br />

That is a highly unusual arrangement, but is a demonstration of our commitment to our member artists and the work they are creating.</span><br />

There is always so much to see there. For this visit, our knowledgeable tour guide was Alex Santana. She took us for private viewings of <a href="http://manacontemporary.com/richard-meier-model-museum/" target="_blank">Richard Meier</a>'s architectural models and <a href="http://manacontemporary.com/chamberlain" target="_blank">John Chamberlain</a>'s swing-camera photographs.

It's not every day that an artist has the opportunity to meet casually with a gallery owner - especially a successful gallery that has been continuously open in Westfield for over 40 years. This special event offered a relaxed & friendly environment in which to hear first-hand how a gallery works both with artists and art buyers.<br />
<br />

Attending artists were encouraged to ask Danielle the questions that they had always wanted to ask a gallery owner. It was a fascinating discussion, and another one of the unique opportunities that the WAA offers its many artist members.<br />
<br />
Along with original fine art pieces, Juxtapose also offers expert framing & matting services to artists - and WAA members always receive a discount. Not a member yet? What are you waiting for?!<br />

business from a gallery owner. Listen to Danielle talk – in her own gallery - about
the history of Juxtapose, the type of art they have historically sold, what the
Westfield art-buying audience is looking for in a local gallery, and learn
about the selection process that she uses in evaluating the art and artists
that she caries. We will also hear how Juxtapose offers expert framing and
other services to artists - and don’t forget that WAA members always receive a
discount!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Our dynamic guest presenter, Dr. Barbara Thomson, led us through an afternoon that alternated seamlessly between lecture, live piano, recorded musical selections, projected slides of paintings, an organ performance...and finally a guided art-making experience that put our new knowledge to use.<br />

We chose to host this special event in Patton Hall at the First Congregational Church in Westfield because the facility provides easy access to a grand piano, an organ, and space to create art.<br />

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Dr. Thompson supported her discussion of the difference between Baroque and Romantic musical <br />

Following a short walk to the church's sanctuary to hear Dr. Thomson perform Bach on the organ, many members stayed on to put their new learnings to use. Executive Board member Paul Federico led the group in creating images of musical instruments while listening to a range of diverse recorded musical selections. As anticipated, the music had a major impact on the resulting artistic compositions.<br />

This unique presentation was a long time in the making, and we are grateful to the Westfield Foundation for providing the generous grant that made this presentation - and the use of this exceptional facility - possible.<br />
<br />
We thank Dr. Thompson, the First Congregational Church of Westfield, and the Westfield Foundation for a wonderful afternoon of artistic education & exploration.</div>

<span style="color: #202020; font-family: Helvetica;">Although
visual & musical art are typically seen as two distinct forms of
expression, Dr. Thomson will illustrate how they can inform each other
beautifully. This afternoon event will focus on listening and visual
association based on musical passages. Attendees will also participate in a
guided art-making session... catch the muse! Light</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica;"> refreshments will be served.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

It was our way of saying Happy Holidays and spreading cheer through original, locally-made artwork, and it was a hit with store owners, residents and tourists alike.<br />

At the request of Sherry Cronin and the Downtown Westfield Corporation, we have created an all-new collection of artwork for 2016 that is on display 24 hours a day, 7 days a week on Elm Street (between Quimby & Broad).<br />

<br />
In October, we met for our monthly event at South Avenue Arts in Garwood. Owned by our board member Sharon Reed, this business provides studio space and classes for artists of all ages, and a gallery space for sales.<br />

This event, the first of several this season in which we will take a look at the business side of art, will be hosted by our board member Sharon Reed, founder and owner of South Avenue Arts. Sharon has built a "creative, cooperative community art space" by transforming the former Garwood VFW into this large, shared studio space. View the facilities for yourself as we enjoy snacks and conversation and Sharon shows us around her space, including the art studios, class space, and gallery while explaining to us how she brought her vision to life and how she expects it to grow as a part of our arts community.</div>

We loved our spot in the pocket park on Elm Street (see photo above) last year, and will be setting up there again this summer on Tuesday, July 12. </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">We will move to just-opened Foundation Park (adjacent the south side of the traffic circle) on Tuesday, August 9. On both nights, a selection of local artists - all WAA members - will be exhibiting their original artwork. These events offer a terrific opportunity for visitors and townspeople alike to spend a little time seeing wonderful art and talking with the artist. And, of course, enjoying the many live jazz bands.</span><br />

Seafood Grill at 235 North Ave W, Westfield. Owner George Vastardis is always sad to
see the previous work come down but is looking forward to a new showing of art for his
customers to enjoy. We are currently seeking artwork of all mediums and styles
(unfortunately not sculpture) of works about 20 x 25 outside measurement. Also one
large piece for his back dining room space about 40 x 40. Since warm spring weather is
finally here, let's hang some pleasant outdoor scenes, people enjoying activities, or
colorful still life, to view while dining. Artwork will hang for the months of May and June.
