GPW Online Art Share — Feb. 24 at 7:30 pm! All Pen Women are invited to gather via Zoom for a virtual art show where we can step into each other’s creative worlds through art.

  • 20 artists or pieces.
  • Each member will have 1-3 minutes to share about their work and process.
  • This is a wonderful way to showcase what you’ve been cultivating in your studios and hear about your inspiration.

Please note that this is an opportunity for all members to join this time of supporting Greenwich Pen Women. (Watch for a separate email with Zoom link)  or check our calendar!

Attention Art Members:

From Karen Heffner — Marilla Hajjar, a dear friend of GPW and curator of Les Beaux Arts Gallery, has invited GPW artists to display two works of art at the Round Hill Community Church (395 Round Hill Club Rd., Greenwich) from Sun., March 8 to Thurs., May 7. Drop off: Church office – Wed., March 4 and Thurs., Mar. 5 from 9:30 – 2:30. Please let Karen Heffner know if you are interested in participating by email or text.  203-536-6648 or karenheffner@gmail.com

It is a small gallery. Depending upon the number of artists interested in submitting work, we may be able to show two pieces each (unless the work you chose is very large).

  • Pieces will need to remain in the show for the duration of the exhibition. 

If you want to submit work, but will not be available to deliver or pick up your work, let me know and we will make arrangements.

We are hoping to get as many of our artist as possible to participate. It isn’t just a chance to show your work, it is also a reminder to the community of who we are and what we do.

  • When you submit artwork provide, title, medium, and price if it is for sale.

I have been asked to submit a photo for a press release. If anyone wants to submit a good quality image to be used, email it karenheffner@gmail.com. Make sure it is very good quality or the gallery will not accept it. I need to send the PR copy as soon as possible.
