More than a dozen artists display their work during October at Rappahannock Westminster-Canterbury; the artists are also residents at the retirement community in Irvington.
The RWC watercolor class is taught by Callao resident Pam Bowers, with an annual display in the fall. Works are created in watercolor, acrylic and alcohol ink.
“The residents love to see this exhibit every year,” said Bowers, who’s taught art at RWC for 19 years. “They know the artists, so they have a special connection, and they get to see what their friends are capable of doing. “It’s so much fun for the students to see their work in a mat and a frame. And when it’s hung, there is something special about that. I hear students say, ‘Is that my painting? I did that?’”
Residents and community members are invited to view the residents’ exhibition 9 a.m.-5 p.m. daily throughout October in Rappahannock Westminster-Canterbury’s Gallery Hall.
