From the organizers:
The American Impressionist Society (AIS) will soon open its 25th Annual National Juried Exhibition at the Rockport Art Association and Museum. On view will be 200 paintings, including 25 created by AIS “Masters,” officers, and founders.
Most have been executed in oils, pastels, watercolors, acrylics, or gouaches. A seven-member jury reviewed 1,601 entries, and a printed catalogue illustrating all the works they selected will be available for purchase.
AIS Master Carolyn Anderson will serve as awards judge, distributing more than $85,000 in cash and merchandise, including $12,000 for Best of Show. Among opening-week activities will be opportunities to paint outdoors, workshops, demos, a panel discussion, talks by artist Mark Daly and museum curator Amy Kurtz Lansing, and a tour of the Cape Ann Museum and the world of Edward Hopper, who summered on this scenic peninsula for decades.
Founded in 1998, AIS is a nonprofit organization with more than 2,100 U.S.-based members who promote impressionist painting through exhibitions, workshops, and other educational programs.
