April Art Exhibit: Artistic Edge Studio – Student Art Show

Posted on by Patricia Valsecchi

ARTISTIC EDGE STUDIO presents:  Seeing Takes Time

A student art show featuring over 100 pieces of artwork by 50 artists

On display in our Gallery:  April 1 – April 28, 2024

Fine artist Heather Bondorew Sawtelle is the founder and sole teacher at Artistic Edge Studio.

“Teaching art and sharing what I have learned has been one of the great joys of my life.  Most of my time over the past 25 years has been dedicated to teaching students the fundamentals of art and showing them how to expand their vision and grow in their knowledge of technique and materials to produce realistic artwork that is truly spectacular. 

Talent is overrated.  Patience, diligence, and acquiring the correct thought process enables each artist to attain the true skill of seeing, observing, and creating masterful works of art.

We all have creativity inside us, but learning the techniques to showcase our creativity and skill is imperative to achieve quality artwork.  Most people don’t know where to begin, but EVERYONE CAN CREATE MEANINGFUL ART.  This show is a celebration of aspiring artists of all ages.”

All Avon residents in need of a library card – you’re in luck! 

We are currently issuing library card numbers by email while we are closed to the public.  You will then have full access to all of our e-resources including eBooks, audiobooks, streaming movies and more!

Please send an email to librarycards@avonctlibrary.info to request your library card number!  Staff will be working remotely from home, and will respond to your email within 24-48 hours.

Once we re-open to the public, you will need to visit the library in person (with photo ID and proof of residency) to pick up your library card – and we will be so happy to see you!  Our hope is that by having access to all of our online resources, it will provide some degree of entertainment, enrichment and comfort during this stressful time.
