THE BIG SHOW: The 2010 Annual Washington State
Juried Art competition at Collective Visions Gallery begins next
month. There are a number of Kitsap artists participating this
year. I’m sure I’ll be posting more about it before the exhibit
opens on Feb. 2, then throughout the month. There’s a schedule of
events on their Web site:

THE PUBLIC IS WELCOME: I just received some information
from Loretta Anderson, who is the vice president of the South
Kitsap Art Association, which has been in existence darned near as
long as I have. The SKAA meets at Cedar Heights Junior High School,
2220 Pottery Ave., in Port Orchard at 7 p.m. on the fourth Monday
of each month. They meet in the art room. If my calendar is
correct, that means that they will be meeting on Monday, Jan. 25.
Artist Jo Ann Sullivan will demonstrate pastels at the meeting.
Perhaps someone can take a picture of Jo Ann’s demo so I can post
it on the Artful Blogger. The only time the group doesn’t meet is
when there are school vacations.
FREE CLASSES: Al Mulkey is offering some interesting free classes at both Artists’ Edge locations in Silverdale and Poulsbo. Classes will be held in Poulsbo from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. on Wednesdays, and in Silverdale, 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. on Saturdays. Mulkey will teach some india ink techniques, as well as a class in caricature.
