Exhibit
Change at the Orleans Library
It’s
time to change the exhibit at the Ottawa Public Library: Orleans
Branch at 1705 Orleans Boulevard, Orleans, Ontario.
On
Tuesday, March 1st, 2016, please retrieve the works that have
been hanging for the past two months and/or bring in new paintings
(or other two dimensional art) to the Orleans Library. These new
pieces will hang until Tuesday May 3rd, 2016.
The
changeover at the Orleans Library is between 10:30 a.m. and 11:30
a.m.
Please
come prepared to record information about your paintings: Title,
Medium, Size, and Price along with your name, phone number and
e-mail. You can bring up to 5 paintings although, depending on the
total received, not all may be accepted. Paintings must be properly
framed and ready for hanging.
For
those bringing a painting for the first time this year, you will be
asked to sign or update an Arteast contract. Blank contracts will be
available at the Library.
When
someone shows an interest in purchasing a piece, they will be advised
to contact you directly to make the transaction. We prefer to leave
all works hanging for the duration of each exhibition. Neither the
Library nor Arteast takes responsibility for the security of works
exhibited but reasonable care is taken to ensure their security.
Fifteen
percent of any sale is payable to Arteast for its operational budget.
Remember
that these are very public areas that put your work and name before
the public. Do your part to encourage people to visit the North
Gloucester, Orleans and the Blackburn Hamlet Library branches where
Arteast members exhibit on a continuing basis
We look
forward to seeing exhibitors on Tuesday March 1st at 10:30.a.m.

will be exhibiting some of their junk art sculpture in the display
case across from the AOE offices on the main floor at the Shenkman
Arts Centre.
The works, which will be on display from Wednesday,

comprise discarded items from various sources and are individually

Communiqué
Arteast's
hard-copy, quarterly newsletter—Communiqué—is popular with our
members, but did you know that it is also available on our Web site
at http://arteastottawa.com/newsletter.php? A notification when a new
issue is released is communicated via the weekly Arteast Digest.
Posting of the Web version may be viewed in full dazzling colour, at
least two weeks before the print version (black and white) is
delivered by Canada Post. With rising postal costs, some members
have requested that they be removed from the mailing list for the
printed copy. Other advantages of going with the online Communiqué
are:
-
reduces printing and envelope costs;
-
makes Arteast more "green";
-
no more hunting for misplaced issues (Arteast's Web site has the
current and all back issues).
Printed
copies will be available at our monthly Grow With Art meetings and
the Promenade Arteast gallery at the Shenkman Arts Centre. If you
prefer to read the newsletter online, please e-mail us at
editor@arteastottawa.com to have your name removed from the
newsletter mailing list.
La
copie imprimée du trimestriel d’Arteast – Communiqué – est
populaire auprès de ses membres, mais saviez-vous qu’il est aussi
disponible sur le site Web http://arteastottawa.com/newsletter.php
? Lors de sa publication, une notice paraît dans l’hebdomadaire
Arteast Digest. Sur le Web il peut être lu et vu en couleurs deux
semaines avant la version imprimée ( noir et blanc) postée par
Poste Canada. Compte tenu du coût postal croissant plusieurs membres
ont enlevé leur nom pour l’envoi postal - vers le Web. Il y a
d’ailleurs d’autres avantages du Communiqué en ligne tels que :
-
réduire les coûts de l’imprimé et de l’enveloppe;
-
Arteast plus ‘vert’;
-
ne plus être à la recherche du numéro manquant (le Web d’Arteast
conserve le numéro courant et les anciens numéros).
Des
copies imprimées seront disponibles à la réunion mensuelle L’Art
en herbe et à la galerie Promenade Arteast au Centre Shenkman. Si
vous préférez lire le Communiqué en ligne, s.v.p. contactez :
editor@arteastottawa.com
afin d’enlever votre nom de la liste d’envoi.
