The Cypress Art League open show was held April 26 and once again, it was an outstanding exhibit with 221 pieces entered.
The judge was Jason Dowd, an art educator who teaches at the Laguna College of Art and Design and a past member of the Disney team. The winners will be on exhibit at the center through May 17. The community is encouraged to stop by the Community Center while it is still on display.
The City of Cypress Best of Show Award went to Nancy Anderson and Mayor’s Award was given to Barbara Rogers. There were several special awards including the Frame Maker Award (custom framing), Art Supply Warehouse gift certificates, high-end jewelry from Diamond International Center, as well as certificates from Leon’s Picture Framing and The Tile Zone.
At their general meeting on Sunday, May 17, the Cypress Art League will be awarding student scholarships. The club continues to support young emerging artists from Cypress College. This will also be the last time to see the show.
The May meeting is the last general meeting before the art league takes a summer break. The demonstrator is Nohad Sabbagh, who will provide a demonstration in sculpting.
