Second Annual Artful Affair!

I have been spending so much time in the studio!  It has been one of those creative periods where I hate to get up and leave the bench.  As a result I have lots of new pieces for An Artful Affair this Saturday and I am really pleased with their evolution....My new favorites are the 36" long linked pieces that can be doubled or be made any length based on where you attach the lobster claw clasp...Versatile and bold!  Pop in if you get a chance!

An Artful Affair 2011

The Greater Westmoreland Creative Collective is pleased to announce its second annual trunk show, "An Artful Affair 2011", on Saturday, October 1st, from 10 to 4 p.m., in Greensburg, PA.

"An Artful Affair" is intended to celebrate local artistry and to honor Pennsylvania's long heritage of fine handcrafted goods. In a world filled with "fast, cheap and disposable", the GWCC and "An Artful Affair" are dedicated to providing only quality, high value, and unique creativity to those who can truly appreciate them.

Our artists also have a strong commitment to the three R's (Reuse, Repurpose, or Recycle) and you will find that many of their works reflect this important environmental sensibility.

Please join us for a day of tantalizing tea, delightful delectables, and amazing art as we showcase local artists, craftsmen, designers, jewelers, and organic products.

Come join us for a delightful afternoon celebrating creativity!

Artist members who will be spotlighted:
Merriann Grant - fine jewelry
Nan Loncharich - fabric arts
Cia Williford - miniatures and mixed media arts
Katie Resch - painted woodwork
Helen Stetina - needlecrafts
Lisa Hertzog - country decorating
Additional guests will be announced prior to the event.

Location:
1104 Middletown Road
Greensburg, PA 15601
