The sad news is that Main Street Art, the front gallery and shop, are closed. The Sip and Paint parties continue through June in the rear activity room, with parking back there too. The shop was a partnership with one partner supplying the building and the other supplying the artists and the sip and paint parties and kids classes. The Real Estate partner, the landlord, didn't make enough profit and so the Main Street Art enterprise was forced to close down. I will really miss all the art and the artists and the great effort to keep culture alive in Maple Shade.
Nonetheless, the beat goes on at the old train station in Merchantville called ElandArts. And the artist in residence at Main Street Art has work in this show. I hope you go too!
Last night at Cherry Hill Library there was a brilliant lecture on the Revolutionary War in South Jersey, in my humble opinion a very neglected topic. The speaker, Mr. Colden, I believe is his name, i currently director of Pitman Libr. formerly head of Salem County Historical Society. I took his tour of the Salem County Historical Society and that was also brilliant. He is a very good speaker and the extremely large audience was entirely engaged such that the debates and comments went on well after the lecture was over. A good sign in the history world.
Happy Trails,
Jo Ann
