Start planning ahead! Anne McNevin has wondrously arranged for a collaboration between the BVAA and the Milford Town Hall Concerts. We are to showcase art at each one! You can see their schedule below. The first show is on November 14th! We’ll put out more details as we get in closer to that date.

Nov 14th – Rogues Rascals Rapscallions Show

We all had great fun last night at our first meeting of the season, learning Origami from Lisa and paint mixing from Bev!

Congratulations to all the winners in the 2015 Hopedale Day in the Park competition! BVAA members claimed a number of the ribbons. We also gained a few new members and sold art from our booth! All in all, a delightful day.

Photos galore!

It’s a gorgeous sunny day for Hopedale’s Day in the Park Today Sat 9/12 from 10-4! Come out & stop by the BVAA booth!

From Carol:
I would like to thank everyone who participated in our first plein-air event. Also a big thanks to all that helped with the weekend’s event. Food for goodies, set up and take down, all takes a lot of work and many hands make the work lighter.  Good news we made enough money to pay all expenses (ALWAYS A TREASURERS CONCERN). I think everyone involved will agree it was a great weekend.

The awards went as follows—
1st place – Bev Tinklenberg
2nd place – Rick Cardoza (previous President of BVAA)
3rd tie between Pam Siderewicz and Carole Plante
honorable mention Janet Iacovelli (first painting ever) and Carol Frieswick.

If anyone has suggestions for the next plein-air event please let me know. We need all the help we can get to make these a success.

Thanks again.

Carol Frieswick
