The Sertoma Arts Center is showcasing its 46th annual exhibition organized by the Sertoma Parks Artists Association (SPAA) starting this weekend. A collective of 30 fine art artists who share a passion for turning blank canvases into expressive pieces, some static and others that seem to dance right before your eyes, they have been doing so since the group's founding in 1979. These artists convene weekly, sharing techniques and the occasional laugh while honing their craft, according to the City of Raleigh's announcement.
First showing their work at the Sertoma Arts Center in 1979, SPAA has made it an unbroken tradition to present their latest creations every April since that next spring event in 1980—snow, rain, or shine. True to form, this year's exhibition, which runs from Saturday, March 29 to April 24, offers a wide variety of visual treats suitable for every taste, ranging from landscapes that could rival the serene beauty of the park itself to abstract works that pulsate with life. You can find out more about the exhibition by visiting the Sertoma Arts Center's official announcement.
So, mark your calendar for a cultured outing at the Sertoma Park where the SPAA exhibition stands as a testament to the vibrant artistic community that has flourished in the park's embracing environment for over four decades. Don't miss out on the opportunity to dive into this visual feast, crafted meticulously by the hands of local artists who have devoted themselves to brightening the world through their canvases.
For those looking to immerse themselves in local artistry, the doors of the Sertoma Arts Center will be open to the public, offering a chance to soak in the creative prowess Raleigh has cultivated. The SPAA exhibition is more than just an art show; it's a time-honored gathering where arts, culture, and community come together, brushes and palettes in hand, to celebrate the pursuit of beauty and expression in all its forms.
