Foxboro Art Assn Fall Show

For the first two weekends in October, the Gallery exhibited the annual Fall Members Show of the Foxboro Art Association. 111 pieces of terrific art by 56 members of the Art Association were displayed in 4 different media and ribbons were awarded in each category by guest judge Carole Berren.  The "Best in Show" ribbon was awarded to  Donna MacLure or her watercolor titled "Tangled", as pictured below.

Before the ribbons were awarded, however -- during the first weekend -- the public was invited to vote for their favorite piece (the "People's Choice" award). And, in all, 194 votes were cast by members of the public. The decisive choice was artist Laura Zanghetti for her painting titled "Shoe Shopping" (pictured below). The second weekend was capped with a Saturday afternoon reception as crowds of art lovers streamed through the gallery. At the end of the second weekend, the show comes down to be replaced by the returning anchor artists plus two guest artists for the 3d weekend in October, Pat Buckley and Marjorie Sardella. If you are in the neighborhood stop by and treat yourself to beautiful art work.

Paintout A Hit

Lots of onlookers were drawn to view the artists painting outside the Gallery Saturday afternoon. And many entered the Gallery to view the Fall Art Show by the members of the Foxboro Art Association; and most were delighted to have the chance to vote for their favorite work of art -- the "People's Choice" award, which will be announced at the reception to be held at the Gallery next Saturday afternoon (Oct. 13) 2-5 pm. As always, the public is invited.

Paintout Today (Oct 6) 1-5 pm

The rain, if it occurs, is predicted to hold off until after today's paintout. Come to the paintout and while you are here, vote for your favorite work of art at the annual Foxboro Art Association's Fall Members' Show on display in the gallery for a new ribbon called "The People's Choice".

Paintout Oct 6 Still "On"

The forecast has been as changeable as the weather, but as of Friday noon, the forecast is getting better for tomorrow (Saturday, Oct. 6). Now it's only a 20% chance of showers, with milder temperatures predicted. Accordingly, we are still planning to have our paintout from 1-5 pm. Bring your supplies and enjoy the company of other artists as we hang out together. Be not afraid! And while you are there, come into the Gallery and view the wonderful exhibition of the Fall Members' Show of the Foxboro Art Association and vote for your favorite work of art.

Paintout Postponed One Week

Due to the rainy forecast, the paintout scheduled for this Saturday, Sep. 29, at Patriot Place, has been postponed to the following Saturday, Oct. 6. Jack Gannon promises we will have a sunny day. Hope to see you there next Saturday afternoon.
