Attention members:

We have received a number of questions regarding the upcoming show that are answered by a careful reading of the prospectus.  Among these are:

  • Painting arrival deadline at the Riverside Hotel
  • Paintings receiving awards must be available for the travel show
  • Date and time for the awards ceremony
  • Tear down date for the exhibit

Please examine the prospectus carefully before calling or emailing Carol HasBrouck with questions.  Answers to most of the questions you have will be found there. The prospectus can be found on the ArtCall website, or access it here.

Thank you very much!

All good things must come to an end!  Our outstanding exhibit at the Riverside Water’s Edge Gallery closes on Sunday June 29.

Four (4) paintings sold right from the exhibition, and Idaho Power chose a painting from Rosellen Hong and one from Steve Gruber for their gallery!  This information is in the catalog which if you have not received, you will shortly.

  • If you do not receive a catalog please let me know.  They’ve all been mailed out according to the information in our Member list.  Please help us correct any mistakes.

Please visit the Riverside Hotel Monday June 30 for the pickup of your painting, from 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM.

Repeat:  Monday June 30, 11:00 AM to 1:00, Riverside Hotel, Painting pickup.

Enter through the Sapphire Room entrance on the west side of the hotel, and the paintings are currently scheduled to be in the Garnet Room, along the left as you enter the hotel.

If you shipped your painting, it will be returned to you in its original packaging.  It will ship from UPS, and you will be sent the receipt for the cost.  Please pay for your shipping by sending a check to:

Annual Show is complete and here are the results!

By Annual Juried Exhibition

Greetings IWS Membership!

First, a huge thank you to the members who made this year’s annual show a great success!

I’m happy to inform you that the catalogs are printed and will be ready to mail shortly.

Just yesterday I finished mailing award notifications to those unable to attend Tuesday’s event.

Attached for you are the results of the exhibition: Click here for that information.

I want to thank all of the participants in the annual show for sharing their hard work and taking a chance on rejection!  It’s always a bold move to put your work out there.

For those of you who were not selected for the exhibition, please keep your brushes damp and jump in again next year.  Our juror Kathleen Giles had a tough time and was unsure she’d make all the same choices on the next day, so you never know.

Thank you again and I hope you enjoy the catalog!

IWS Annual Juried Exhibit Awards Ceremony Schedule

By Annual Juried Exhibition, Events

Subject:  Awards Evening Schedule 

Greetings all members planning on attending the annual show awards ceremony at the Riverside Hotel on Tuesday, June 3:

  • Please note that the awards ceremony runs from 6:30 to 8:15 PM.  It may run to 8:30, but this later time for beginning makes getting to the hotel easier.

A version of the prospectus shows it going from 5:30 to 8:30, and it’s possible some of you may have gotten this version.  Plus, I see that I never updated the prospectus on the website.  So there’s that.

Eventually you will get a competent annual show chair.  Maybe.  Hang in there.

Once again, the event is 6:30 – 8:15.

Hope to see you there!

Scott

Riverside Hotel- Water’s Edge Gallery hosts opening for IWS Annual Exhibit

By Annual Juried Exhibition, Region - Southwest

Hello Annual Show Participants in the Treasure Valley Area:

The Riverside Hotel’s Water’s Edge Gallery is hosting an opening for our show on May 9 from 5:30 to 7:30 PM.

There will be 4 tables available for you to showcase your art for sale in the Riverside lobby area.  I don’t believe they collect a commission on these sales.

The hotel puts out a nice arrangement of light appetizers and I’m told, dessert.

Please notify Scott Muscolo if you would like to reserve one of these tables for the May 9 event, first come first served.

Thank you and we’ll see you at the opening!

Greetings IWS 2025 Annual Show Participants: Juried or Non-juried Paintings

By Annual Juried Exhibition, Annual Show Location

Greetings IWS 2025 Annual Show Participants:

This applies to all members who participated in this year’s annual show:

If you wish to exhibit your SUBMITTED PAINTING(S), whether you were accepted into the juried portion or not, please complete and return to Scott (either by mail or scanned and emailed) this No Charge insurance contract (available at the end of this message in a link) from the Riverside.

It simply insures your painting for the amount you indicate on the form.  Without this, if your painting walks out of the hotel or is damaged, you are not insured.  This costs you nothing.

As a reminder (and it’s on the prospectus) your painting must be received by April 29, either delivered in person or shipped.

If you are hand-delivering your painting, please bring it BETWEEN THE HOURS OF 9:00 AND 11:00 AM.  The time of delivery was not specified on the prospectus.

AGAIN, PLEASE HAND DELIVER YOUR PAINTING BETWEEN 9:00 AND 11:00 AM ON APRIL 29, TUESDAY.  (Unless you are shipping your painting, of course.)

Please download, complete, and return the form available by clicking here, as soon as possible.  I need them by early next week at the latest.

Thank you!

Scott Muscolo, IWS Annual Juried Exhibition Chair
