UPCOMING EVENTS

CALENDAR OF EVENTS 

 

 Elnora Nokes is our featured artist this month. Elnora is a collage artist from Olathe, Kansas.  She is retired from a career as an Art Teacher for ages pre-school through 12th grade, and she also taught workshops for Primary and Early Education teachers. Her work is inspired by landscapes and the forms, textures, colors, and shapes of the built environment.  The visual interactions of the various elements never fail to inspire further exploration through artistic exercises.   She uses personal and found photographs, handmade papers, magazine pages, found objects, and acrylic and watercolor paints to create abstract landscapes and still life collages.Her work has been shown and won awards in juried exhibitions across the country as well as several galleries in the Kansas City Area.   Her work has also been included in exhibitions and won awards from the National Collage Society, where she has been a signature member since 2015.  Her collages can be seen locally at the Olathe Art Gallery
Paul Martveli is our musician this month. Our theme this month is "Artville".  We will have classes and artwork this month in the gallery celebrating our theme.
It will be a great time had by all.
