Be a Part of the Art! At the Lewis Elementary 20th Annual Art Night Celebration, “Experience the Perspective” on Thursday, May 1 from 6:30 to 8:00 p.m. Along with a gallery-style exhibition, featuring student artwork and performances, this year’s celebration will again feature beautifully hand-cut silhouette portraits by the nationally, acclaimed “Silhouette Lady,” as well as The Paintbrush Café, which will serve specialty desserts, treats and beverages. There will also be the opportunity to take home artwork donated by local artists. Best of all—the proceeds will be used to support Lewis art programs.
The Silhouette Lady is Returning to Art Night!
Linda Neal, aka Elsie and Elias Charles' grandmother, aka The Silhouette Lady is considered one of the country's top silhouette artists, quickly snipping an accurate black paper profile freehand. She will be joining us on Art Night to cut the silhouettes of friends and family. Portraits are
mounted on a 5" X 7" card with name and date, and available immediately after sitting. Each original cut - $15.00; each duplicate of original - $5.00. $5.00 of each cut silhouette will be donated back to Lewis. She will also be at Lewis during school hours on Friday, May 5, cutting silhouettes for those unable to have it done at Art Night. Order forms with the details will be going home with your children in the coming weeks. Samples of Linda's work are displayed in the office windows. Please stop by to take a look.
