“After the
challenges with our previous venue at the Dulles State Office Building, we
were looking for a
organization that would be a great arts partner, and we are grateful to the
Jefferson County Historical Society for the use of this iconic Watertown
landmark for the Fall Art Show,” noted NCAC President Anita Prather
Harvell.
Artists are
encouraged to attend the opening and provide an opportunity to discuss
their work with guests.
“We are so
excited to be moving the Fall Art Show to the historic Paddock Mansion,”
remarked Fall Art Show Chair Gillian Maitland. “Working together with the
Jefferson County Historical Society to showcase their amazing vintage
pieces alongside the impressive works of our North Country’s finest
artistic talent is going to add a special touch to this year’s art
show. We think this ‘old meets new’ vibe is going to be a treat for
our patrons and supporters this year. “
The submission
deadline is October 4, 2024. To enter, visit www.nnyart.org/site/fasinfo.
