Creativity And Kindness Artists In Friends Supports Library, Benevolence Fund BY ANN MEAD ASH
nne Treadwell has founded a new group at Garden Spot Village (GSV). Called Artists in Friends, the dozen or so members, most of whom are artists, puts on art shows in the area, donating 20% of what it sells to an organization connected to the venue. Treadwell explained that the idea formed when she and her husband held a show at Sycamore Springs, a GSV neighborhood, a few years ago. Utilizing the Sycamore Springs clubhouse, Treadwell showed her watercolors and her husband’s birdhouses. All the funds were donated to the GSV Benevolent Fund to help residents whose care had exhausted their finances. Several art shows followed, with one taking on a “Christmas in July” theme and another held in the GSV pavilion to adhere to COVID-19 restrictions.

Most recently, Treadwell and fellow Artists in Friends group member Marie Diehl have filled the ELANCO Library, 11 Chestnut Drive, New Holland, with their work, including watercolors and oil paintings. The artwork will be on display with items for sale until Wednesday, March 9. On Thursday, March 10, group member Jessie Fehrenbach will begin exhibiting her colorful collages in the space. Fehrenbach cuts up magazines to create works of art such as her “Low Tide on Cape Cod,” which is an ocean scene featuring a tiny likeness of President John F. Kennedy. “Whatever is in the magazine, I try to incorporate into the art,” said Fehrenbach, whose career in art began at age 55 when she took a watercolor class. “My husband said, ‘You need to paint every day,’” recalled Fehrenbach, whose other colorful works include a vibrant hydrangea.
