Amazing Linda McNeill-Kemp, A True Advocate for our young Talent

I attended a wonderful breakfast today at our fabulous CCCC, it
was to honor the Intership Program, The Schools to Careers  movement
that involves so many of our best and brightest, our own stars of the future.

If you are not aware of the tremendous arts education department at the
Cape Cod Museum of Art, you should get on their webpage  www.ccmoa.org and read about all that Linda McNeill-Kemp Education Director provides for the entire Cape Cod community. 

I agreed to participate with The Studio on Slough Road  by taking  Tess McCarthy as an intern for the fall semester.  She is a brilliant young art
student who was beginning the long arduous portfolio development for
admission to university. 
It was  truly inspirational working with her. Together we both grew and inspired  one another as artists, and human beings.  We will show together
at their May showing  in which both mentor and student present the fruits
of their experience.  The students works will travel to the statehouse  after the
show closes at the museum.  The curator was just taking in the works when
I  stopped by the museum last week.  They have a fabulous show he had
curated from the museum collection.  Large Scale paintings it was really quite
fine, not to be missed.  These young artists are so gifted and the museum is
such a treasure.  Don't miss this opening. Get on their webpage and read about
the opening reception etc.  There are so many things to enjoy at this beautiful
facility.

 If you are heading down 6A , take half and hour to visit
the wonderful work  they have up, and pick up a broschure about the education
department and all they have to offer. It is inspirational.
Please come by this Saturday and join in all the fun as The Studio on Slough
opens for another season.  Director Laurel Labdon welcomes all who enjoy
art to browse the studio for this first peak of the summer season, and The
Sidwells invite you to enjoy the gardens, the cottage and their art collection.

2 to 5 Saturday May 3 in conjunction with the beautiful Brewster in Bloom
Festival.

Katy thanks to you & Steve for the gracious gathering and the chance to meet the Rock Hopper! Because of my flu I already forgot the names of your favorite Texas Swamp Boogie artists- your classmate the palletteknife painter and the sculptress, first name Clyde... I'm gonna try to google them anyway- great voodoo folks... what was the Penal Colony she had a studio in? So amazing...
