It will soon be time for our December show. Members of the Art Guild of Person County are invited to show up to 2 pieces (each up to 24 inches) for a show of the combined works of the Art Guild of Person County and works by PCC students instructed by Amy Levine.

The dates for drop off of artwork will be Tuesday, November 24, and Wednesday, November 25. All work needs to be properly labeled, using our form, and framed and wired securely for hanging.

This year, our art show display will be shown in the upstairs hallway gallery space. The reception of our December show will take place on Thursday, December 3, from 6 to 8 and will be part of the Jingle celebration that evening. We hope to see many turn out for a great show.

The pick up date for art work will be Wed., Dec. 30, from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m.

We ask that all artists who sell work during this show to remit ten percent of the proceeds to the Art Guild (in addition to ten percent to the Kirby Gallery). These funds will go towards helping to meet the Guild's show expenses.

Winner of People's Choice award from the September member show

The Art Guild of Person County was pleased to present the People's Choice award to Roxboro Community School student Carleigh Barbour for her winning entry, "Rilee" in the Guild's September member show. Art Guild Treasurer Toni Garrett presented the $100 award to Carleigh during her art class at her school with her teacher, Anne Bettendorf present.

According to Art Guild President Chrystal Hardt, the People's Choice award was created to help encourage members to submit entries for the Guild's member show. The People’s Choice award is also a way to engage the community in an active way while visiting the Kirby gallery and for the Guild members to get some feedback about what the community most enjoys seeing. This year is the first year the award has been given following a September member show to the Guild's first junior member.

Carleigh was very excited to receive the Guild's award and said she plans to enter future shows.   The subjects she enjoys painting include landscapes and animals, and she also likes to work with watercolors and pen and ink.  

The Guild is now looking forward to its holiday show themed "Glow". Guild members will be exhibiting their work alongside the work of the students of Piedmont Community College in the December show.
