Chairs Painting
Bo's Place has asked KVPAC (Katy Visual and Performing Arts Center) to find 12 artists to paint unfinished rocking chairs. You are not expected to seal them - KVPAC will do that for you. If you are interested please reply and send Kathleen Haymes <kat@kaleidoscopebayou.com> a website or some means of seeing your art digitally. As you can see once we said yes, Bo's Place is rockin' as they are delivering chairs THIS Friday! Any theme, pallet or ideas are welcome. The chairs will be auctioned to benefit Bo's Place, "where children are heard and hearts are healed" a non-profit organization providing grief counseling to children who have lost a parent.

The chairs will be ready for pick up at KVPAC on Friday, Oct 6 after 3pm and need to returned to KVPAC on January 5, 2007. The chairs are to be returned unsealed. After Friday, the chairs will be moved off-site so we will have coordinate pick up times.

Christmas Art Show
The Madison County Arts Council is planning its’ second Christmas Art Show and Sale to be held on Saturday, November 25, 2006 at the Kimbro Center in Madisonville. The council wants to provide an opportunity for artists to show and sell their work. Artists are encouraged to include items in a variety of price ranges including lower priced items, i.e., note cards, small paintings, and prints.

We will provide each artist a 10’ x 10’ booth with 6’ tables. Booths around the perimeter of the room will have a wall display area 10’ x 3’ for hanging art. All other equipment will need to be provided by the artist. Additional booths will be placed down the middle of the room for art that does not require wall space. This event will be complimented by an advertising campaign beginning in the fall. See the attached flyer. Please fill out the bottom of the flyer to reserve your booth.
