Tiny Glimpse of the 17th Annual Chatham Tour


Several members of the Chatham Artists Guild preview the 2009 Studio Tour at the PAF Gallery with a show of miniature artworks no larger than 12x12 inches. The Peggy A. Fullington Galleryis at the heart of a flourishing community of artist studios, galleries and eateries in down town Siler City. The PAF Gallery, at the NC Arts Incubator, is centrally located at 223 N. Chatham Avenue in the Historic Downtown District of Siler City, a short drive from the Triangle or Triad. An artists reception will be held at the Third Friday celebration on Friday, September 18th.
The Chatham Artists Guild is a non-profit organization of regionally and nationally recognized visual artists who live or have their studios in Chatham County. Each year, Guild members open their studios to the public through the Chatham Studio Tour. Visitors travel throughout lovely rural Chatham County to meet artists in their own work spaces, and share their ideas on art and the creative process. The 17th Annual Studio will be held December 5&6 and 2&13 2009.
The Guild artists featured in the PAF Preview are: Vidabeth Bensen, Anne Bigelow, Joyce Bryan, Shannon Bueker, Salinda Dahl, Martha Danek, Forrest Greenslade, Mark Hewitt, Julia Kennedy, Kathleen Ladd, Roberta Marasca, Gretchen Niver, Lara O’Keefe, Roger Person, Deborah Sanks, Bruce Saunders, Joan Sommers, Rita Spina, Annabelle Stein, DL Taylor, Michael Thompson, and Eddie White.
