Every year at The Art League means dozens of exhibits, hundreds of classes and workshops, and thousands of students. This year was no different.
But we also did lots of other fun stuff:
- We celebrated our biggest Patrons’ Show Fundraiser of all time
- We welcomed a French tall ship to Alexandria
- We introduced a new director for the Gallery
- Michelle Obama gave us a shout-out
- IMPart artist Jon Meadows was interviewed on ABC
- and scholar Richard Ormond visited to give a talk
Some of this year’s most popular blog posts were answering questions like Why Do Galleries Use Red Dots?, What Art Class Should I Take?, and What is Surface Design?
Thank you for coming to class, exhibiting your work, attending events, reading this blog, and otherwise making this another great year for The Art League!
We’ll see you in 2016!
