BAINBRIDGE – Jericho Arts Council Gallery Committee hopes to see you enjoying the last few days of Regatta Row while roaming North and West Main Streets in “downtown” Bainbridge.
This is the 10th year of Art Trail Exhibit which consists of eight of our classic Canoe Paddle Adirondack style chairs and new this year, twelve lovely rocking chair versions built by local woodworker Dan Stolzfus.
The theme this year is “Celebrating the Regatta since 1962” and there are diverse impressions of the past 62 years of the Canoe Regatta expressed by the artists.
Golden Artist Colors of New Berlin & Norwich has again donated a selected assortment of their fine Heavy Body Acrylics to each artist, based on their design plan. The chairs can be viewed on the streets till Friday May 24.
They will then be taken to General Clinton Park to be viewed during the Regatta festivities till they are auctioned by Chris Brown Auction Service in the big red & white striped Chamber of Commerce Tent, at 4PM Saturday May 25. Also on display in the storefronts of businesses are Canoe paddles made by Foxx Worx Paddles and painted by students of Bainbridge-Guilford Schools and Greene High School.
The paddles will be online auctioned at www.32auctions.com/rr2024paddles until Friday May 31.
The chairs will be auctioned starting online at www.32auctions.com/rr2024chairs then moving on to live. Go to the website www.jerichoarts.com to find the link to the online voting site for People’s Choice award winning chair. Proceeds from the art auctions will go to the JAC Regatta Row fund to support the artists and musicians and to create future events.
Also we would like to thank our other sponsors: Jericho Preservation, June & Steve White, Barnards Hometown Hardware, Roy & Dolores Nabinger, VIP Payroll & Tax Services and John Haddad Construction.
Our artists this year are: Abby Barnett (Award of Excellence), Fran Briggs, Pat Cristelli (Award of Excellence), Robin DeGolier, Christine Giuliano (Award of Excellence and Best Creative Concept on two different chairs), Sarah Green, Rachel Hares, Kyle Hedlund (Mayors’ Award), Dorene Ireland, Donna Kazalski (Best Creative Concept), Carol Lernihan, Ellen Lockhart-Main, Cheryllynne Moore (Best in Show), Carlylia Muller, Bri Rig, Jessica Tefft and Cyndy Weeks.
