Poet/Artist Show

Fall 2002

Invitational show pairing the works of poets with PSC visual artist

The Sketch Club's complementary art education effort, one of its most successful activities, is it's exhibitions held from September to June in the Gallery.

These exhibitions include the work of members, art school and high school students, and local artists. Some are juried shows, offering prizes to successful competitors. Others are invitational events, intended to give beginning or nonprofessional artists the opportunity to display their works.

The shows currently offered free to the public include the pastel show, the print show, the workshops show, the photography show, the members show, the student show (for area high school artists), the prestigious small oils show, held annually since 1865, which bestows the famous Sketch Club Medal, designed by R. Tait McKenzie, on the winner, and the watercolor show, one of the area's premier watercolor competitions with works by Philadelphia's leading practitioners of this demanding art.

The student shows, held to encourage young artists, draw exhibitors from the area's art school undergraduates and city and suburban high schools. This is one of the few shows open to such young artists.

All Philadelphia Sketch Club exhibitons are held at the Club House unless otherwise noted.

is located in Center City Philadelphia, Pennsylvania USA. 215-545-9298.
