The Sandwich Arts Alliance's first event will be at the Sandwich Chamber of Commerce’s SandwichFest on June 27th
The Alliance will be on the grounds of the Deacon Eldred House, 4 Water Street, from 10am-4pm exhibiting in six different tents. Many thanks to Jay Pateakos, Chamber Executive Director, and Donna Kutil, SandwichFest Chair, for allowing our group to join their special day. In addition, the Alliance thanks the Glass Town Cultural District and the Massachusetts Cultural Council, our partners and supporters, for providing the funding for our participation in SandwichFest. Visit them at their tent next to the Alliance main tent.

The Sandwich Arts Alliance main tent will be located on Water Street. Membership forms will be available to join the Alliance, as well as tee shirts for sale and free balloons and stickers. The Board members will be there to share all the fun and excitement of this new dynamic group.

Right next to the Alliance tent will be the Visual Arts tent.The Visual Arts group of the Sandwich Arts Alliance will have over 30 members participating in the SandwichFest Art Show and Sale. Both 2 and 3-dimensional works will be represented in this show as well as a fine art display by the 8th grade STEM Academy students. Works will include watercolor, acrylic, fine arts photography, blown glass, custom jewelry and much  more. Kathryn Kleekamp, Frank Winters, Margaret Ellsworth, Diana Payne, Rita Bernier, Maureen Burbic, Janet Weeks, Ken Wiedemann, Carolyn Wiedemann , June Kershaw, Tina Trites, Alan Budney, Cris Reverdy, Jeff Urquhart, Lenore Lyons, Joanne Westerhouse, Patricia Mosca, Wendy Nelson, Jeanne Hamilton, and Carolyn LeComte are just a few of our local artists whose work will be in the Visual Artists Art Show tent. This is the second of many exhibitions representing the Visual Arts Group in Sandwich.

Sure to be fun for the kids will be an opportunity “To Be A Star” with lots of fun things to adorn themselves and/or they can be a Lobster (made by Frank Pannorfi). Parents are invited to take their kids pictures.
