AAG show

The Allentown Art Guild had a show at the Rebearth "Gallery" in Asbury Park.  I had not been to Asbury Park since my nephew moved to Point Pleasant Beach.  The city has changed a lot.  The show ran for 3 weeks and had publicity in the local papers.  Unfortunately, little sold.  One of our members who does fabric art did find a buyer from Princeton.  The rest of us did not sell a thing.  Too bad. There was some good stuff there.

Meanwhile the Artists of Yardley had a members only show with over 100 pieces on exhibit.  A few sold at least.  There was some really interesting pieces at that show including a teapot shaped like a Japanese kimono.  It was spectacular.  So were some of the paintings, particulary one of an Amish boy in front of a quilt.

AOY is a very active group.  Its hard to keep up with them.  They have so much going on.  Their Harvest Fest at the end of Sept includes an auction of paintings.  I have one there.  I also have one in a local coffee shop (Java Jim's) and they just announced another show for AOY members.  WOW!
