BOSQUE COUNTY ART CLUB
A CLUB FOR ALL REASONS
The first Tuesday of each month is the regular paint day in the Spieler Art Room at the Bosque Arts Center. During summer months the room is available on that day upon request for members who wish to use it if there are no other scheduled events.
Accomplished artists who like to paint with others can enjoy getting together to work. Newcomers to this area may find the club activities an excellent way to become acquainted and make new friends. Beginners can expect encouragement from others and can also take advantage of the demos and workshops by members and guest artists.
Aspiring artists in the area will find the Art Club's annual FallFest Show and Sale an excellent opportunity to show their work and get some exposure. The popular show is held in conjunction with Clifton's FallFest, always the third Saturday in October. The show is advertised in the surrounding areas. This year the show will be held in the gallery of the Bosque Arts Center and will remain there for two weeks
For people who don't paint but want to support the arts, membership in the club will entitle them to attend special programs that are offered through the year. Examples of these would be visits to other art galleries and tours of local artist's studios, as well as social events such as the Christmas party in December and the End of Year luncheon in June.

Activities For Bosque County Art Club

Club Members meet on the first Tuesday of each month in the Joan Spieler Art Room at 10:00 am. A second optional meeting is the third Tuesday of each month in the same room. If Arts Center events prevent us from meeting in the room then another location will be selected and posted. During these meetings business for the club is discussed and the remainder of the day is used for painting or presentations. The Spieler Art Room is available upon request during the year to all Art Club Members.

Annual trips are planned during the year to scenic parks, Art Galleries or Artist's Studios. These change yearly and are voted on during the Annual Meeting in June of each year.

During the year Art Club Members bring current work to the monthly meeting and vote on one favorite to display for the next four months. This award is designated as our “Ace Award”. The chosen recipient is also awarded a $25.00 check by the Club's Treasurer.
