Gathering of Local Artists
Saturday, November 12, 2005

Media Theatre


Artists from in and around Media came together at the Media Theatre on Saturday, November 12. There was a wonderful diversity of media represented with painters, photographers, musicians, poets, potters, actors, and fiber artists among others in attendance. Live music was provided by Tom Mullian and everyone had an opportunity to "write on the wall" and tell us what the Media Arts Council could do for area artists. Many great ideas were generated and M.A.C. hopes to continue the dialogue with these and other artists who live and create in our community. Keep checking the website for more information about future artist events.
