2020 SCAA "Virtual" Art Classic...
not your Everyday Art Show!
|
This year the Santa Clarita Artists Association will hold its 31st Annual Art Classic as a "Virtual" experience due to these extraordinary times of Social Distancing, and not being able to hold a public event due to Covid-19 pandemic. We wanted to continue the traditions of this annual event. So through modern technology we are able to host the virtual event.
Our members will be exhibiting their original artwork in nine different categories. With all of us having been on lock-down for many months, it has allowed artists to work on more art than ever. Art has been Essential in being a creative outlet in these trying times! Therefore, we expect to see some rather unique art. The public will be able to view all of the artwork right here on our website a week prior to the Virtual Awards Ceremony that will be held on Zoom Saturday, October 17, 2020 from 7:00-8:30 pm. |
The evening of the "Virtual" Art Classic Awards Ceremony will be hosted by members of the SCAA Board announcing the recipients of the awards for all the art categories and the "Huff Perpetual Award" and "Outstanding Service Award" for their contributions to SCAA. The City of Santa Clarita will also present their prestigious "City Excellence Award".
This event is normally a fundraiser for SCAA scholarship fund to support Santa Clarita graduating high school seniors continuing their education in fine arts. Unfortunately, we will not have our silent or live auction due to hardships that business have endured through the pandemic that would usually contribute. If you would like to contribute privately, please contact SCAA. For more information, call Nancy Gallardo at (661) 400-1014 or Susan Zavala (661) 609-1450 or email SCAAEventChair@gmail.com |

Friday Morning Plein Aire Painting

Friday, October 23rd, Central Park, Santa Clarita
Friday Morning 9am-12pm Welcome to Friday Morning Plein Aire Painting! I will arrive at the location about 8:30 in order to choose a location to set up. There is a tree near by this location that I thought would be fun to study. I hope that the temperature and weather are pleasant. This month we will be meeting at Central Park. Central Park is located at 27150 Bouquet Canyon Rd. Santa Clarita, CA., between Seco Canyon Road and Centurion Way. I will be parked by the basketball courts. The basketball courts are located to the right after you enter the park, go to the far end of the park. I will walk passed the courts to the walking path. There is a bridge that goes over the wash. I will setup over there on the walking path. Call if you can't find me. We will meet from 9-12 on Friday October 23rd. I will be there at 8:30 to discuss choosing a subject and underlying composition. We can also walk and sketch in order to choose a focal point and subject to paint or draw. Don't forget your masks, observe social distancing when around anyone. Bathrooms are clean and available. Bring hand sanitizer. I'm looking forward to seeing us painting outside. See the map to your right or here are the directions from Google Maps. Call or email if you need further information: 661.993.6251 or Meressa922@gmail.com See you soon! Meressa |
