 | THE ART OF COLLABORATION The Art of Collaboration is happening at Hyde House—soul sharing, laughter, partaking, celebrating—as day by day, my dream unfolds for artCentral’s inclusive, collaborating, thriving, magical family—artists, lovers of art and all those who appreciate and support the arts—working, creating and playing together to bring joy, encouragement, inspiration and beauty to each other and our community. |
When you view Frank Young’s outstanding exhibition, SEEN and UNSEEN, on display in our galleries until April 8th, you witness the testament of a solo artist collaborating and making magic with his environment, his muses and his medium. As we gathered on Friday evening to celebrate at Frank’s Opening Reception, the collaborative magic was made by the hands and hearts of many—jazz stylist Tristan Royster, Judy Goff, Heather Goff, Cindy Chilton, Dean Vandergriff, Betsy Flanigan, Jo Ellis, Kelly Heidlage, Gail White, Helen Kunze and Hometown Bank, our collaborating Exhibition Underwriter. To our volunteers “Thank You!” To all the good people of Hometown Bank, a resounding “Thank You!” for your generous financial support which brings SEEN and UNSEEN to artCentral.
As I first asked for Hometown Bank’s underwriting, Lonnie Heckmaster, President of Hometown Bank, gave me an unqualified “Yes!”, and then he asked “What else can we do for you?”
My being new to my position as artCentral’s DirectorCurator and hearing Lonnie Heckmaster’s enthusiastic, positive response reassures me there are many of you out there wanting and ready to help artCentral enrich our community. Please don’t wait for me to ask. Call me (417-358-4404) and enjoy the opportunity to underwrite an Exhibition or join with us as a Business/Corporate member. Your collaborative support keeps artCentral strong and expanding.
Collaborative rhythms were the heartbeat pulsing energy and activity through Hyde House last Saturday with two Free Workshops back to back—Cindy Moore presenting the Art of Blogging in the morning and Tricia Courtney offering the Art of Upcycling for the afternoon. To these fine artists of word and image we offer our deep appreciation for your donation of your time, talent and energy.
