October 21, 2017 MA/RI Regional Meeting

Held at Allison Wilbur's Studio in Bristol, MA

Topic of Discussion:  Home Studio vs Remote Studio - Pros and Cons

Fifteen members attended a regional meeting held at Allison Wilbur's sunny studio in Bristol, MA.  Located in the classroom of an old decommissioned school, the large space holds Allison's long arm, examples of Allison's artwork, books, supplies, and places to sit and enjoy the inspiration of a dedicated art space.  Attendees enjoyed a lengthy discussion regarding the home art studio versus the remote art studio.  Members shared their experiences with both.  Practical setup and organization of the studio was also addressed.  Following lunch and a short business meeting, show and tell was held.  A review of the "Explorations" call for entry helped the attendees understand in greater depth the details.

The next MA/RI regional meeting will be held March 24, 2018 at Franklin Mill Store in Franklin, MA from 10 am to 2 pm.  The topic will be "Exhibiting Your Work and the Jurying Process".  A mock jury will be held to acquaint attendees with the details involved in choosing artwork for an exhibit.
