Ocracoke Through Your Eyes

There are 100 little 6 x 8 canvasses at the Ocracoke Preservation Society Museum waiting to be transformed into original works of art. Amy Howard, OPS Administrator and the organizer of the art show, hopes that professional artists, dabblers, crafters, wanna-bes, and even people who don't think they're artists will be willing to participate. 

She wants the artists to show Ocracoke as they see it – the beach, the village, the people, any small part that they choose. Participants can draw, paint, glue, sew, staple, or otherwise add artistic embellishments to the small ready-to-hang canvasses. 

Stop by the Museum, pick up a canvas, and be a part of the show!

The canvasses are due back to the museum by January 10th. 

A wine-and-cheese reception and art opening is planned for January 25th, from 5 – 7pm at the Museum. The artwork will be available through a silent auction during the reception.
