A LOTTO Art 2024 - Artwork Donation Registration
7/1/2024 - 8/15/2024

      A LOTTO Art - Let's make this a another Masterpiece Fundraiser!      

Event Date:  Thursday, August 15th 5:30 pm.  Auction will start at 6:00 pm

Artwork donations will be accepted up to August 15th, are preferred by August 10th.
Ticket can be sold at the door if we have enough artwork to cover tickets.

Help to make our second annual 'A LOTTO Art' an even bigger success! You can help us make this work by donating a piece of art, or better yet, several pieces of your work, valued at a minimum of $250.00.
 
Our goal is to have 100 works at a minimum, but we'd love to have more.  Artwork can be 2-D or 3-D, or a collection, for example multiple pieces of jewelry or pottery.  We will have feature stories in several print publications, exposure in a variety of online event websites including our local Visit Hendersonville NC online event listing, plus our own social media campaign.  This is a great demonstration to our community that our members are passionate about contributing to our success.  
You can still donate up until August 15 and drop your piece off to be in the exhibit as it grows right up until the drawing!  You can complete this registration without uploading an image and providing artwork details to hold you place for when you select your work.  Your artwork images and info will not, obviously, appear on the website until you complete that step.
 
Here’s how the lottery-style event works:
Art League Artists donate artwork that would normally sell for a minimum of $250 and some already donated valued considerably higher.  Art collectors and enthusiasts can purchase a “LOTTO” ticket for $100.
Each ticket entitles the holder to take home a piece or collection of artwork for just $100 regardless of the value of the painting!  Tickets will be sold on a first come, first served basis online through the Art League website or at the Gallery at Art Place.  Ticket holders can preview the available artwork on the Art League website and get a sneak peak of the artwork in an exhibit opening August  3rd.  The live LOTTO event will be held on Thursday, August 15, where LOTTO ticket numbers will be called in random order and ticket holders choose their "prize" artwork.  You can still donate up until August 15 and drop your piece off to be in the exhibit as it grows right up until the drawing!
 
The more art pieces donated, the more tickets we can sell.  Let's make this a masterpiece in generosity!

Somatic Art and Relationships
8/10/2024

Instructor:  Judi Moolten    

Date: August 10, 1:00-4:00

Location: The Art Place Gallery Classroom

Fee: Members: $125., Non-members: $ 140.

Maximum Class Size: 25

About the Class:  Relationships are one of the most rewarding — as well as the most frustrating aspects of our lives. Whether in intimate or work settings, the quality of our relationships has an enormous impact on the quality of how we live, our self-esteem, and our careers. Yet, we often find the behavior of others baffling — even if we have known them intimately for many years. Often, the things we do not understand in others are the greatest sources of problems and conflicts in our relationships. Clearly, the better we know ourselves and the people in our lives, the more harmonious and satisfying our relationships will be. This is a workshop for Couples. Couples will work together to connect through Somatic Art. We will access areas where the individual may be blocked from their artistic expression and how the couple may find a deeper connection through artistic communication. Using tools from EMDR/Bilateral Stimulation, Enneagram Typing/Character types, and IBSR Somatic mapping each participant will create a deeper connection with themselves and others.

We will remove unhealthy stress and open up the artist's palette to physical expressions of color, mental descriptors, and balancing of the art/science part of our brain, or organized side while opening it up to the fully self-expressed side. We will remove barriers to creativity and discover what artwork best suits you.

We will help participants recognize personal strengths as well as to uncover the blind spots that they bring to their relationships. If you want to improve your relationship with a spouse, child, friend, business associate, or family member, this Workshop will be invaluable.


What skills, experience or pre-requisites are required for this class?
Pre-req's teacher will send some materials via email for participants to fill out at least 24 hours before class. Participants will bring, tissue, a journal, favorite pens, pencils, and markers.    
Participants will bring, tissue, a journal, favorite pens, pencils, and markers.

Artist Bio:   Judi Moolten is a retired trauma behavioral specialist. Judi spent 20-plus years as a social worker and clinical director for nonprofits before she opened her mental health training facility that she ran until COVID hit. Before COVID, she traveled the world training clinicians in the most advanced somatic psychology processing tools available. Now retired from the Mental health profession as a licensed clinician, she has found a way to disrupt behavioral health and the art world by bringing what was once used only in a clinical setting to treat unhealthy stress to the mainstream. Judi occasionally teaches, coaches, and supervises clinicians and non-mental health professionals in unhealthy stress that leads to trauma. Couples using Somatic Art are her specialty. She also teaches real estate agents how to apply stress-reducing tools to the art of communication between buyers and sellers of property. In addition, she is a top Real Estate Agent in WNC and owns her own Real Estate Firm, Grateful Mindset Properties, where she serves WNC & beyond with a grateful mindset and volunteers for many nonprofits in the area as a charity liaison and more. In addition, she has a weekly radio show combining, art, science, and a tad of real estate. Where she has local guests, local news, and local culture live on air Saturday mornings at 9:00 am, on 107.7 FM.

Flag Books with Kate Stockman
8/17/2024

Instructor:  Kate Stockman

Date: August 17, 1pm - 5pm

Location: The Art Place Gallery Classroom

Fee: Members: $85, Non-members: $100

Maximum Class Size: 9

About the Class:  Come create your own flag book! With simple materials and attention to detail, we'll move step by step into creating a flag book, so called because its pages are small, like flags. I created one (pictured) entitled "Flags" and listed some of the times when I saw red flag warnings that I did not pay attention to at the time. I added white flags of wonderful events that have occurred in my life. There is also a pocket for extra flags for future events. We'll have plenty of time to creatively play.

What will your flag book contain? Come to class with a topic or create the book to fill in later. Gardens? Trees? Grandkids? Family? Animals?   All you need is a bold willingness to try something new!

Supplies:  All supplies are provided. BYO tools: exacto knife, ruler, healing pad for table protection, images, scissors, pencil, handmade papers (I will bring some, too, for the covers), close-up glasses if you need them, etc.   Before class time, consider what you want your flag book to hold. (Such as: What is one of your passions? Or maybe a word to explore. Or yin/yang comparisons...). If you want to bring images, feel free. I will have some adhesives.

Artist Bio:  Kate Stockman relishes creating and teaching, and she is happiest when she is doing both at the same time. A bookbinder, Kate is also an assemblage jewelry artist focusing on vintage sterling silver and a collage/paper artist. She calls her work "TouchStones Anecdotal Art (each piece tells a story; perhaps it touches your story)". Kate believes that all art is a vessel of Spirit and designs her classes to honor that belief, creating a safe, non-judgmental environment for all. Kate and her wood-turner husband Andrew live just outside of Saluda in a little cabin in the woods. She is grateful.

Collage Playshop
8/18/2024

Did you know that 40 minutes of creating art lowers the level of cortisol (the stress hormone) in the body? Art really does heal, and it's fun, too. Join us on the third Sunday of every month to play with collage art and take a short creative break at our Sunday Collage & Play. No experience necessary.

Creating art is just playing with materials. Most of us might already have our supplies ready and organized, but just don't have or take the time to play and create! This free Sunday session offers the time, space, and supplies to encourage playing and creating to anyone who is interested in exploring the paper collage medium.

The instructor will provide an embarrassment of collage supplies (including magazines, catalogs, glue sticks, etc.) to get folks started. Attendees can bring something they're already working on, their own images, magazines, etc. (please also bring your own scissors!) Prompts will be offered, but it's completely up to you what you want to collage! This is a casual gathering to bring community together to create art and everyone is welcome to join! Bring a friend!

This event is free but requires registration. There is a $5.00 usage fee that will be collected.

Did you know that 40 minutes of creating art lowers the level of cortisol (the stress hormone) in the body? Art really does heal, and it's fun, too. Join us on the third Sunday of every month to play with collage art and take a short creative break at our Sunday Collage & Play. No experience necessary.

Creating art is just playing with materials. Most of us might already have our supplies ready and organized, but just don't have or take the time to play and create! This free Sunday session offers the time, space, and supplies to encourage playing and creating to anyone who is interested in exploring the paper collage medium.

The instructor will provide an embarrassment of collage supplies (including magazines, catalogs, glue sticks, etc.) to get folks started. Attendees can bring something they're already working on, their own images, magazines, etc. (please also bring your own scissors!) Prompts will be offered, but it's completely up to you what you want to collage! This is a casual gathering to bring community together to create art and everyone is welcome to join! Bring a friend!

This event is free but requires registration. There is a $5.00 usage fee that will be collected.







Delicious Details - Art for Lunch

Come join us as we savor various courses of art!  This month, a panel of members will share their passions for creating art. They will talk about their art, their journey to discover their art, and their art process. What do they hope for as they create their art?  What do they look for in others' art?  Free to members (but we don't serve lunch -- while you're welcome to brown bag).  This series meets monthly on the second Monday from 12 - 1 (or so) in the Studio classroom.  Please register to ensure adequate space for all.
