Workshop making a floating frame

On the weekend of January 27 and 28, "met Potlood en Penseel" organized its annual exhibition. During this weekend the works of our members on display. Months in advance is our activities committee is already busy with this. Which works are exhibited, from whom is which painting, what is the name of the painting, all this information is collected and written on small cards so that the next to the works can come to hang. Volunteers have to be found, hostesses who will speak to visitors, flyers made and distributed, but also: who will open the exhibition? People are also needed to place the partitions, it is a huge job every year. But don't forget the refreshments, the coffee and tea also these have to be purchased so that every guest has a nice cookie with their coffee or tea.  When the weekend arrives, work begins on Friday to prepare the partitions, set up the rooms, prepare the works of art for each group and provide them with "name tags." Finally, on Saturday morning, the last partitions were put in place and the paintings could be hung so that they could be displayed to their best advantage. The log was placed in the most favorable spot and at 2 p.m. the exhibition could then be officially opened. Also this year Coen van Ham was present and he noted that the quality of the works shown, this year was even higher than last year. On Saturday we had 147 registered visitors and on Sunday there were 144. We should as an association be proud of what we have organized, of course with thanks to the volunteers and our fantastic activities committee. Would you like to see the pictures? Then click

On 18-11-2023 with Pencil & Brush is organizing another beautiful lecture, given by Ingrid Gaasterland. She says: In this new lecture I place the Brueghels in their time: the 16th and 17th centuries in the Southern Netherlands. A time of movement and innovation in many areas. And in the

work of the Brueghels everything seems to be literally in motion; an invitation to look and to keep looking. That is what we are going to do during this lecture!

Colour-mixing workshop - 18 April 2023

On Saturday, January 14, 2023 at 2 PM, the annual exhibition was opened amid great interest by chairman Irma Rabelink. Unfortunately, during the years with Corona, a digital version had to suffice.

Immediately after the opening, artist Coen van Ham (http://www.coenvanham.com) gave a very inspiring and appealing introduction, in which he also involved a number of the numerous attendees in a pleasant way.

This beginning marked the start of an exhibition that was very busy on both days.

The exhibited works, which were arranged over 2 rooms, garnered admiration and appreciation from visitors. On display was a colorful and diverse set of works of art. In addition, it was established that the level of the works betrayed that the artists are also guided in their activities by the professional teachers that “Met Potlood en Penseel” has at its disposal.

Apparently inspired by what was on display, a number of registrations of new members and requests for further information in this regard could also be booked.

We can look back on a successful exhibition in all respects!
