...Convention Opportunities

 

Attention: Artists, Art-Lovers, and Future Docents

Will you be at The Episcopal Church General Convention (from July 8 through 17, 2009) in Anaheim, CA? If so, there will be several options for art/artist participation at ECVA's Booth (# 814).

You might be interested in displaying a piece of your work at the ECVA Booth. If so, you may hand- deliver it to the booth (sorry, no shipping arrangements are available).

Perhaps you might like to serve as Artist-In-Residence at ECVA's Booth for a meet-and-greet-
the-artist
event (between 1:00 and 3:00 p.m.). It's always enlightening to meet the artist behind the
art. Socialize, network, and inform, all in one delightful afternoon.

Or you may wish to be present in the ECVA Booth for 2 to 5 hours during the convention floor hours and serve as docent for the art displayed at the booth, as well as for The Artists Registry which will be open for registration at the booth.

In addition to the opportunities above, there will be an artist and art lovers/supporters gathering on Saturday, July 11, 2009 at the ECVA Booth. This event will introduce you to other artists as well as members of the ECVA Board of Directors. Mel Ahlborn, ECVA President, and Producer of The Ubuntu Reredos (the digital altarpiece created for the 76th General Convention of The Episcopal Church) will be there to describe the Reredos, her process, and how it might open doors to a new, more vibrant, spiritual perception.

No matter where your interest lies, if you are going to be at the convention, plan to visit ECVA's Booth (# 814) and see first-hand the array of art displayed and meet with artists daily. If you are a member of The Artists Registry, meet other members. If you are not yet a member, sign up at the booth. We are planning a delightful in-booth art experience for you.

Please contact the ECVA Los Angeles Chapter president Deborah Cantwell, at ecva_la@hotmail.com or by phone at 714-494-7491 (Pacific Standard Time) to indicate your interest and availability.
