Art Show
Our first annual Village Art Show and Contest proved to be a wonderful success. We had 28 entries in many different categories: paint, pencil, ceramic, metal sculpture, water color, and photography. Attendees mingled among the artwork, meeting and greeting the artists, and enjoying delicious appetizers and refeshments. Special thanks and recognition to Donna Hartsock and Heather Keiffer, from the Village Clerk’s Office, and to Deputy Mayor Ron Swartz, for their tireless work in organizing and planning this event.
In addition to casting their vote for their favorite piece, those who attended also got an up close look at the Village’s two famous paintings by N.C. Wyeth - “Bronco Rider” and “The Conqueror” - which were on display during the event. An informational flyer about the artist Wyeth was available during the contest. NC Wyeth Flyer
