LOCAL ARTIST PART OF STATE-WIDE EXHIBIT

Thursday, April 20, the United Methodist Women accompanied Jane Larrabee to Montpelier to the Vermont Arts Council Spotlight Gallery on State Street. Jane Larrabee had a piece in their State-wide art effort called "Palettes of Vermont." The artists who had exhibits all used a wooden paint palette, given out by the Arts Council, and used it for a painting or collage or 3-D sculpture. It was a really nice show of 53 works, on exhibit from April 10 - the 29th. The title of Jane's piece is "Opera."

The title of the show is: Palettes of Vermont, 53 Flavors: Tease Your Palette
The show runs from April 10 - June 2, 2006 (the last date is an extension since the show is so popular).

The governor came to this event to honor the artists. The UMW ladies in front of the Capitol are, left to right, Jane Larrabee, Hazel Greaves, Dot Larrabee, and Jane Milne.The ladies visited the capital and sat in on the Legislature for a little while.

Many thanks to Rev. Carol Borland for sending me this article and the pictures.
