UPAF Artists Among Us
16 Paintings in 16 Days
The Pfister Hotel’s Artist in Residence, Shelby Keefe, has been commissioned to create a 12” x 12" painting portraying each of the United Performing Arts Fund’s (UPAF’s) 15 Member Groups and one painting representing UPAF itself to be auctioned off in June as a fundraiser for the 2012 UPAF Campaign. This collaboration represents a unique opportunity for the performing arts to shine in a visual arts platform and to highlight the diversity our arts groups have to offer our region.
Shelby intends to complete each painting in one day, and will start the process on March 1, 2012. The public is invited to observe Shelby’s creative process at her studio in the Pfister through March 16, 2012. All the paintings will be on public display at the UPAF 2012 Campaign Kick-Off on April 4, 2012. Timelapse video footage of each piece will be included on this page as the pieces are completed. Please check back frequently to see Shelby's progress.
