Opportunities for ARTSBRIDGE members

Saturday, June 14th is the date for the Annual Mill Hill Garden Tour. This year's event will highlight "Art in the Garden" and the organizers are seeking Sculptors who would be willing to display their work in the gardens featured on the tour.

Participating artists will be identified in the tour brochure. Are you interested? Respond to this email and we'll get you details! artworksTrenton@aol.com

This exhibition is jointly sponsored by the Artists of Bristol on the Delaware and Lower Bucks Hospital. It is our hope to demonstrate the diversity of the artists in the 'AOB' and welcome other artists in the area to join us. Another of our goals is to encourage local businesses to celebrate the arts by providing exhibition spaces for our members. We thank those who are already working with us.

The Hunterdon County Library Headquarters located on Route 12 in Flemington has a gallery that showcases the work of local artists with month-long shows. The library gets a lot of traffic and artists are pleased with the exposure the library provides. If any members of Artsbridge would like to share their work with our patrons, there is no charge or commission and their work may be offered for sale. There is only one month (December) open in 2007 but several months are still available for 2008. Hope to hear from you!
