Exhibit from September 7-28, 2014

Hours: Monday – Friday 9 AM – 4 PM

First, Third and Last Sunday 1-3 PM

The Winter Workshops at the Gourgaud Gallery sponsored by the Cranbury Arts Council has given local artists the opportunity to remain painting 12 months of the year. CAC has hosted Art in the Park sessions all around the area for the spring/summer months for plein air painting. The focus this year has been, “Giving up Control for Art’s Sake” in watercolor and “Collage Experiment with Texture and Mono Print Techniques”.

The Cranbury Arts Council employs working artists to facilitate these workshops. We celebrate the work done at the workshops with a gallery showing. Work can be submitted from workshop participants that are reviewed and possibly juried, based on the response. We also try to hang a piece from each of our artists and instructors.

The Winter Workshop gallery show will have a reception on Sunday, September 7 from 1-3 PM and we hope many can come to see these artistic efforts at the Gourgaud Gallery where ART happens.

The artwork is for sale with 20% of each sale going to support the Cranbury Arts Council and its programs. Cash or a check made out to the Cranbury Arts Council is accepted as payment.

You can meet the exhibiting Artists at the reception on September 7 from 1-3 PM. Refreshments are served at the Artist Reception.tercolor”
