Community Art Show on the Horizon

The Peninsula Jewish Community Center is looking for local artists who want to share their work and have it displayed in its juried Community Art Show in the fall.

The in Foster City would love to chat with local artists looking to share your work with the public. 

The PJCC is preparing for its 2012 Community Art Show this fall, with selected pieces of art on display in the center's art gallery between October and December. In addition for public viewing, a committee will judge the work.

"Our first community art show in 2010 revealed many extremely talented sculptors, painters and photographers in our midst," PJCC cultural arts director Kimberly Gordon said. "This is why the PJCC is so excited to once again use our art gallery to showcase their unique and creative works of art."

Artists aged 18 years and older, of any level, are invited to submit their artwork for consideration to be included in the Community Art Show.

Entries must be postmarked no later than Wednesday, August 1 and must include the PJCC's application form, a CD with an image of the work or works, and a nonrefundable fee of $20 for one submission, $25 for two or $30 for three. A maximum of three submissions per artist with one application form is allowed.

Notification of acceptance or rejection will be mailed to all artists on Sept. 12, and accepted art work must then be hand-delivered to the PJCC no later than Oct. 4.

For more information on the Community Art Show, including submission details and printable application forms, visit the PJCC's Community Art Show website.

Teachers who have specific projects that require funding can also put their projects up onRead More Donorschoose.org where anyone in the world can donate money to fund the project. This is a great way to get bigger-ticket wish-list type items (not for day to day supplies).

If the city council likes fake plastic nature, then let them saran-wrap their own yards! LEAVE OURRead More PARKS ALONE!! This is soccer special interest pressure on city government at its worst, and the city council appears unwilling or unable to withstand it. Crestview Park is a particularly quiet, serene, simple park with lovely views which the council now wants to turn into a sports arena. Any day you can go there and see families playing on the grass, toddlers and moms enjoying picnics and play time, kids learning to ride their bikes on the nice flat paved area, athletes and older folks enjoying the flat natural track (the only one in San Carlos) to get in shape, teens throwing frisbees on the lawn. It is a perfect place for ALL residents to enjoy according to their needs, not a sports arena dedicated to one activity at the expense of all. Belmont faced a similar lack of sports venues, but they did not choose to pave paradise. They wisely raised money and built a sports complex and spared their beautiful parks for use by ALL residents. I would like to see our city council do the right thing also. And by the way, the opposition to this short-sighted plan is far more than "some residents"! Please visit our booth at Hometown Days.

One summer my kid had soccer camp on at an artificial turf field. It was terrible. It madeRead More everything hotter and very uncomfortable. I had to pull my kid out of camp early because of it. I do not think it is better for the environment OR for kids. Just go to any turf field and try to walk across it on a hot day. Try to go barefoot on it (good luck!) We have been told not to microwave plastic containers because of BPA and bad chemicals that can cause cancer. What about heating up plastic grass and running around on it, breathing the fumes that come off it?? How is that any different?

Artificial turf is appropriate for dedicated use sports venues, not for multi-use city parks.

Thanks for doing this. The one blatant thing I observe on a daily basis is the number and frequencyRead More of deputy's at Starbucks on 800 laurel street and the sky kitchen. I never see them in the neighborhoods. The police department was much better
