Exciting News!! GAL founder and Co-director Erin Stack is one of only 32 artists internationally who have been tapped to contribute to a magnificent green arts fundraising project!!
Michelle Curtis, a freshmen at Stonehill College was inspired by GAL visiting artists interative Air your Dirty Laundry.”GAL recently recieved a note from her: “I am a graphic design major at Stonehill and I wanted to share with you an environmental poster that i did for my graphic design class because you were the inspiration for it. We had to pick an organization that would have supported us if the poster were actually produced by a company. I chose The Green Artists League to support my poster about recycling. The main point of the poster was to show the viewers that there are more than one way to recycle. We are able to recycle trash into art. Please see the attached poster that i did for my class. Thank you for your inspiration.
Supported in part by a grant from the Newburyport Cultural Council, GAL collage artist Pamela Perkins will conduct five weekday workshops during April school vacation. Students will work in teams to create four large Art-Pots which will later be planted and installed in a shared community garden. This is the beginning of GAL’s “Articulture #3”—a series of ongoing projects.
Called “Flower Power,” the workshop utilizes drawing, painting, decoupage and collage techniques. Participants will visually explore the world of “plant guilds,” permaculture and edible flowers, and upon completion, each pot will represent the horticultural science of the plants growing in them–how they’re working together to create and sustain a healthy environment.
