Bus Trip to Cleveland Museum of Art "Picasso and Paper" Show
CANCELLED _ REFUNDS WILL BE SENT OUT
Well, I'm very sad to say that we had to cancel our June trip to the Cleveland Museum. We have cancelled the bus reservation for now and I have been in touch with our contact at the museum. She is going to keep me updated on what happens with the show dates...not sure if it may postpone, extend or cancel. Depending on how quickly things get back to normal we may be able to look at putting something together for the future.

Art Walk Cory - Saturday, May 16 - 12-4pm
The Coraopolis Community Development and Gilberti Fine Arts Studio & Gallery have invited artists from the West Hills Art League to participate in Art Walk Cory. Artists and artwork from Pittsburgh Society of Artists and the West Hills Art League will be stationed inside participating businesses throughout the Coraopolis business district. There will also be strolling musicians, children's activities and the Hoshi food truck. Please contact Debbie Tobin at debratobin@ymail.com to sign up to participate.
They are confirming five Coraopolis businesses to serve as “artist hosts” for the day of the art walk so we are looking for five WHAL artists to represent the league. Two pieces per artist, and the artists will need to provide easels or pedestals (for sculpture) as they can’t allow nailing into the businesses’ walls. Once we have our five artists, they will match each artist up with a business that provides the necessary space. Load in/setup will be between 10 am and 12 pm the day of the event. Artists can of course sell their pieces during the event if they have a square or some other type of electronic payment.
