The Lowell Englehardt Public Library is looking for artists to exhibit their work for a two month period. The library promotes the artists on their website and at the front desk. Currently the works of Sri McCarthy are on display in February, followed by Ruth VanderMuelen in March. If you are interested, please contact Sandi Brogger at rsbrogger@gmail.com.

Buying something from Amazon soon? Please remember to always use AmazonSmile, and be sure to designate Grand Valley Artists as your recipient on AmazonSmile! As an example, here is what one member's Amazon Smile account has generated for GVA in just a couple of months (see image). Here is a link to learn more.

GVA has been offered a great opportunity. We now fill their beautiful community room/parlor with our art. If you choose, you can sell your work, or you can note that it is "NFS" (not for sale). The church will keep a mere 15% of all sales. Debbie Bell's work is currently on display through the month of May, so stop in Monday thru Thursday during regular business hours to see! To show your work, contact Mary Marin at marymarin1285@gmail.com and get on the calendar. We switch out the art every other month.

Be sure to swing by Bliss & Vinegar to see the works of Tom Dandridge now on display. While you are there, grab a healthy and deliciously fresh salad. GVA is happy to have this wonderful partnership with B&V. Pay them a visit! Click on "read more" to see a photo of Tom with some of his work.

We are always looking for new models and would appreciate adding you to our list. We pay $15/hr/ clothed, $20/hr/nude. Use the Contact Us tab to let us know of your interest. We will get back to you shortly.

Rather than several articles, this one article provides links to current Grand Rapids area gallery activities. Be sure to click on "Read more" to see the complete list.
