Though it may not seem so when you step outside, fall is
right around the corner – and with it, new exhibitions. I’m excited to announce
my participation in two upcoming shows this fall, and hope you’ll join me at
one or both.
The first is the 2017 Decorator Show House in Ellicott City.
Since 1987, the Historic Ellicott City Decorator Show House has brought local
artists and designers together to decorate rooms of magnificent Howard County
homes. This year’s show house is the White Hall Estate.
The estate was built between 1800 and 1810, and was placed
on the National Register of Historic Places in 1977. Myself and my fellow
artists from the Artists’ Gallery of Ellicott City have been invited to display
artwork in the specific areas of house, lending those who attend the show the
unique and exciting opportunity to wander a historic estate while catching
glimpses of the work of local artists.
The Show House will be available for public viewing from
Sept. 24-Oct.22, Tues-Sat from 10-4pm and Sundays from 12-5pm. Tickets
can be purchased online, or at the door, and proceeds benefit the Historic
Ellicott Revitalization Grant Program and the restoration of Carrollton Hall.
The second exhibition I have planned for this fall is a
joint show with my friend and fellow artist Carolyn Avery, at The Yellow Barn
Studio and Gallery from October 7-8. There will be a reception, with
refreshments and snacks, from 2-5 p.m. that Saturday. The exhibition will be
open each day from 12-5 p.m.
I’m looking forward to exhibiting some of my collected works
alongside my friend, and hope to see you there. You can find The Yellow Barn
Studio at 7300 MacArthur Blvd., Glen Echo, Md.
Enjoy the rest of your summer, stay cool, and I hope to see
you this fall.
