50th Anniversary Celebration

5/17/2017

This past weekend was our 50th Anniversary celebration of the West Hills Art League and our Annual Juried Exhibit. What a wonderful weekend it was! It was filled with art, food, coffee, wine, friends, famous artists and socks...yes, socks!

In the fall of 1967, three Moon Township artists Nancy Bush, Thelma Fielder and Nancy Gorr sent out invitations to various local artists with a simple message “Come help us form an art league”. The rest is now history. Though Nancy and Thelma were unable to attend our celebration, Nancy Bush was front and center enjoying the whole weekend.

Special thank you to Nancy, Cindy, Debbie, Sue, Sarah, Janine, Jim, Sandy, Audra and Amy for organizing the party and making sure it all ran smoothly. and finally, each and every member of the West Hills Art League, you truly make it a success! The League would 'sock' without you!

Below are photos from the whole shebang. If you have any more photos you would like to share I will certainly be happy to add them to the slideshow. For now enjoy the following slideshow and don't forget our meeting tomorrow night. Please be prepared to pick up your art as the show is coming down.

What a wonderful year it has been!

Our long awaited 50th anniversary celebration is next week along with our annual art exhibit and Sale at Robin Hill. Thank you to all members for what is surely one of best art exhibits to date. I know we say that every year, but our members continue to elevate our exhibits to the highest standards by providing outstanding artwork in various mediums annually. This year is no exception with 89 entries!

The artwork is hung and the our judge, Randi Morgan has made her selections. Stop in at Robin Hill during normal business hours to learn the winners. I don't want to ruin the surprise! One ribbon remains; "Viewers Choice". Be sure to vote for your favorite!

Our opening event is Sunday, May 14th (Mother's Day) from 1-4pm. Join us as we celebrate the talented artists in our community. Free light refreshments and music by Greg Campayno will also be provided. There are even a few surprises planned.
