Good evening everyone,
We're excited to introduce a new event to Philipsburg Heritage Days.
For the past many years, the ladies of St. Paul's Episcopal Church had organized and run the Flower Show, for which we are grateful. This year they decided to step down from that role, and rightfully so.
Instead of letting that long tradition disappear, we're starting something new - you are invited to the Heritage Days Art Show. We're looking for community members of all ages to showcase their paintings, photographs, pottery and craft for the visitors to enjoy. Please share with anyone who may be interested.
Here are some important details:
When -
Thursday July 9 1:30 - 5:00 PM
Friday July 10 11:00 - 3:30
Where -
Holt Memorial Library on Front Street
Age Groups -
Youth 5-12 and 13-17
Adult 18+
Categories -
Paintings
Drawings
Photographs
Pottery
Craft
All work should be original and your own work.
We will award 1st and 2nd prize in each age group and category. Judging will be done by Heritage Days Committee members, and they will contact winners at the end of the Art Show on Friday.
Bring your work to display (and please label your piece(s). You're welcome to sell if you wish. Please provide a folding table or other display furniture - the library has limited supplies. Due to other events happening at the library, artwork will need to be moved to a secure location (by HD committee members or you) at the library on Thursday at 5 PM, and set up (by HD committee members or you) for display again on Friday morning. It is encouraged that you stay with your display. If you are unable to stay, please let the committee members know when you check in. Please plan to remove your item(s) no later than 4 PM on Friday (the library closes at 4:30 PM).
We're really looking forward to seeing your work. If you have any questions, please email [email protected], or call/text 814-577-2714. We will post a few more details in the next couple of days.
