Kids' Art Show Follows Picasso's Taste
An Artists Market Community Center art show in Shohola features work by local youth.
Picasso said, “It took me a lifetime to learn to paint like a child.” The “Picasso Was Right” exhibit/reception features a gallery full of art by local youth up to age 16.
Take the painting, “Fillette au bateau”, done by Picasso himself in 1938. It recently sold for more than $22 million. It’s on display now and during the reception from 4-6 p.m. at the AMCC, 114 Richardson Avenue, Shohola, PA. The gallery’s budget was a little shy of $22 million, so what is on display is a print of the original work.
Response to this event has been enthusiastic, so the organizers have extended the deadline for entries. The event co-sponsors, Barryville Area Arts Association and Artists’ Market Community Center, encourage you to request an entry form at http://barryvilleareaarts.org/OurCurrentProjects.html and then attend the show on June 10, from 4-6 p.m. at the AMCC, 114 Richardson Avenue, Shohola, PA.
