 Cain Park-Celebrating 70 Years

Yesterday, the Cleveland Museum of Art started re-opening select galleries.  They will continue to re-open more every 4-6 months.

I know that everyone has been really anxious to get back in there.

Drop off your work this weekend for our annual show.  Entry fee is $5 per piece through Sunday.  Afterward, it’s $10 a piece for late entry next week.  Don’t miss out on this opportunity.  Last year, over 200 people attended the opening reception, with about 1,300 people seeing the work for the 10 days that followed.  This year, even more people will know about the event due to the charity auction with Heights Arts that will be held the same night.

Great businesses like Pentagon Gallery, Chief’s Auto Wash, Bodega, Diamond’s Flowers, Vidstar Video Rental, the Trattoria, 2009 Cleveland International Film Festival, Coventry Clay Co-op, InSpiral Motion, Mint Cafe and more have donated items for the auction.

 Great artists have also donated pieces for the auction to benefit this wonderful organization. 

Wonderful awards will be given out in many categories, including a Best In Show award of a $150 Utrecht Gift Card. Did we mention the food?? Last year, we had a great spread. It will be a great night!  Plus all participating artists will be mailed a kit with promotional postcards and coupons as a thank-you for participating.

 Come in today or tomorrow with your work.  If you haven’t received the entry guidelines, please call before bringing in Your Work.

Join us for Drawing Day on Saturday, June 7th. Not only will we be sponsoring a part of the event down at the Galleria through the Artist Review Today gallery, but also we’ll have an area available in our store for anyone to draw on that day.

Feel free to bring your sketchbooks, and work in our store for the afternoon. We’ll be able to photograph and upload a limited number of drawings by those in our store for the day, so come early if you need help uploading your masterpiece.
