‘THIS IS EUCLID’ 4TH ANNUAL ART WALK

The City of Euclid’s 4th Annual Art Walk was held on Friday, September 13, from 5 - 8pm. It was a very hot and sunny day! With bad weather predicted, the City decided to move the Art Walk activities indoors at the Shore Cultural Center. The Euclid Art Association had interactive painting stations set up for adults and children in a large room with a ceiling fan and a window air conditioner. Needless to say, we were very happy to be inside at Shore! There were vendors of all kinds set up throughout Shore Center....food, clothing, photographers, dancers, painters, live music, and more. In spite of the predicted bad weather, the event was very well attended. EAA had a room full of painters all evening, including a 7 month old and a couple in their 80’s. “Putting paint to canvas is magical”, said Joan Milligan, our coordinator. “We saw a lot of magic that night.” Special thanks to Wallene Ducmanas, Emma Berzonsky and Mary Williams who helped Joan with the art tables. In addition to the 5”x7” canvases that children could paint on and then take home, we also had a large “Euclid Art Walk 2019” canvas for everyone to paint on. Even Euclid’s Mayor came and added her artist touch! The finished painting will be given to the City. President, Lee Peters was also at Shore waving the EAA banner, greeting people, directing them into the painting room and encouraging them to join Euclid Art. We may even have a few more new members as a result! In addition, our Vice President, Rozenia Cunningham held a Paint Party at Lakeshore Coffee House at 7pm. Ignoring the heat, twelve ‘budding’ artists attended, including our own Mary Ann Gambitta. The pending storm did hit between 7:30 & 8pm and many got soaking wet as they packed to go home. Overall, it was so much fun!
