PAS/WM 2012 Calendar - Call to Artists

Dear Princeton Arts Society Members,

We are pleased to let you know about an exciting new opportunity.   The Princeton Arts Society and the Wachusett Meadow Audubon Sanctuary are planning to create and publish a join calendar for 2012, and we would like you to be a part of it!

The calendar will be co-funded and an important fund raising opportunity for both organizations.  Plus, it will be a beautiful celebration and keepsake of our corner of the world and an excellent gift for family, friends and colleagues.

The calendar will be available for sale at Hey Day, Oct 1.  It will also be available at the PAS December Small Works Show, Dec 2-4, and at other locations and dates to be announced.

The subject will be Princeton and the Wachusett area and the things that members of both organizations value and treasure about our area—the arts, nature (wildlife, birds, flowers/plants), The Mountain, The Sanctuary, the streams and ponds, the beautiful views, our historic buildings, etc.

All forms of art are welcome and encouraged – oil, acrylic, pastel, watercolor, mixed media, sculpture, photography, poetry, short essays, etc. 

In order to make this happen for Hey Day, we have some tight turn around times. 

The Call to Artists Submission Form and a hard copy image of your artwork must be received ON OR BEFORE FRIDAY, AUGUST 12.  More details and forms are attached. 

We look forward to hearing from you.  And as always, your comments and suggestions are welcomed; and if you are interested in helping to make this project happen, please let us know!  Please respond via email to contact@princetonarts.org.

Best regards,

Princeton Arts Society

All welcome!

After a period of work and family life, in 1991 Rosalie Lazarus returned to art and began studying her craft once more. Leominster Art Association has been a wonderful motivation for her and she has participated in many exhibitions and accumulated many awards. Rosalie's paintings have appeared in one- and two-person exhibitions in Martha's Vineyard, Marlboro, Bolton, Petersham, and in Scottsdale and Fountain Hills, Arizona. Portraits by Rosalie have been commissioned in pastel, oil, and charcoal. Along with portraiture, she works with landscapes and still-lifes. In recent years, Rosalie's education has included workshops with Richard Whitney, Daniel Greene, Sally Strand, Doug Dawson, Leslie Demille, Charlotte Wharton, and others. Through the years she has taught classes and workshops and given demonstrations for many groups in Massachusetts and Arizona.

Her exhibition at the Petersham Craft features over forty pieces in pastel, oil, and watercolor and runs thru August 4, 2011.

Len Haug News Update

Len's collage painting titled "All Dressed Up" of the Concord Colonial Inn, Concord, MA has been juried selected for the Concord Art Association's 2012 calendar.

Also, Len's "Tuscan Sunset" has been awarded Honorable Mention at the 76th Annual Fitchburg Art Museum Regional Art Exhibit ( the show runs until after Labor Day) and has been purchased for a Corporate Collection. A portfolio of Len's work can be viewed on his website at www.lenhaug.com

Len Haug Exhibit

 A collection of 30 collage paintings by Princeton resident, Len Haug, will be on exhibit from June 1 through July 31 at the Mountainside Market at 23 Hubbardston Road in Princeton, MA.


All works are for sale and include a variety of subjects including various seasonal scenes of Princeton and surrounding towns. While Len works in all media, his passion lies in creating "paintings" out of cut and shredded  papers and discarded photographs. 


Len has won numerous local, area, and regional awards for his unique art work.  If you have never been to the Mountainside Market, please be aware that, in addition to being a market, they offer a wonderful selection of breakfast and luncheon sandwiches, soups, etc.  It would be great if, over the next couple of months,  you could stop by to both view my art and enjoy the foods and beverages offered by the Mountainside Market.

Music at Wachusett Meadow

A note from Deb Cary, Wachusett Meadow, Mass Audubon

Hi everyone!

A young music group is doing a walking music tour in Massachusetts this summer along the Midstate Trail and they will be playing at Wachusett Meadow on Thursday, June 23rd at 7:00 pm. This outdoor event is free and open to everyone.

The theme of their tour is support of art, nature, humanities and alternative energy. For a taste of their music and more information on the band, see www.masswalkingtour.org<http://www.masswalkingtour.org>.

According to their website, the 2011 Walking Tour is sponsoring a community art show at each stop along the route with the suggested theme or focus being Why Art is Important. The Walking Tour extends an invitation for participation in their events to any local organizations relating to arts, nature, humanities, and alternative energy. Any parties interested in sponsoring or participating in these events can contact: masswalkingtour@gmail.com<mailto:masswalkingtour@gmail.com>. Wachusett Meadow can't fund them but they are having them as guests on the sanctuary.
