Please join Erica Phillips and her students for a reception at Art On the Divide Gallery on March 8th from 2-4.
Refreshments will be served and live music will be provided by David Blonski. This event exhibit will be on display for the month of March.
​
Golden Sierra High School students have consistently pushed the borders to inspire and advance their talent in their creative art. The art show “Collaborative Creative Menagerie” displays a variety of art that students have worked on this year.
Erica Phillips is the visual arts teacher at GSHS and has taught studio arts drawing, painting, printmaking, multi-mediums, ceramics, and media arts for 9 years. Every year brings more astonishing fresh talent and growth with each student.
Mrs. Phillips states:
“By teaching the students various art techniques and the use of diverse materials, they gather the required skills to fully enhance, explore and experience the arts. This has opened up an entire world for them. Many students come in with little to no art experience and after discovering they can create art, they are unleashed. It has been so important that each student realizes they can take what they are taught and create something personal to them. They learn to think outside the box, take their art further and express their thoughts and ideas. Witnessing their growth in the arts has been a wonderful experience!”
AODC Celebrates more than a decade on the Divide, your local source for gifts and fine art...
We are excited that we were able to celebrate our 14th Anniversary on the Divide last June with a continued celebration of the Arts thanks to your continued support of the Art On The Divide Gallery.
​
AODC gallery currently has eleven local artists. As time has progressed our roster of active artists has changed as artists have joined or leave for various reasons. The one constant thing is the collavorative spirit in which we operate to help the arts thrive on The Divide. The gallery is always open to artists that provide something new and different. If you, or someone you know is looking to join the gallery , the application and information regarding membership is available here...
AODC artists continue to "refresh" the gallery monthly with new art. Providing the community with workshops to teach various art techniques and receptions to showcase the art are typical of our monthly offerings. We welcome feedback from the community to help us plan workshops. What would you like to learn? Past workshops have included jewelry, stained glass, mask making, collage and rose-pruning.Directly behind the gallery is a historic rose garden that is maintained by the artists. We have been fortunate to have the Divide Garden Club help with rose-pruning, and hope to continue with that collaboration. They have also been generous in awarding the gallery many years of grants to help with this maintenance.AODC gallery is pleased to provide a space for local student art, under the leadership of Susan Sasano, a local volunteer. She reaches out to our local schools and will switch out the artwork regularly.
