A Day Of Art And Music At Boettcher House By Ann Mead Ash
BVI To Celebrate 60th Anniversary By Ann Mead Ash
When artists congregate, they often like to discuss their creations with each other. This was the case when painter Stephen Gambone and mixed-media artist Carrie Monique Daigle first saw Paris Llanso’s brightly colored painting called “Citrus Splash.” “I love how the buildup of paint is thick and structural,” commented Daigle. “That’s (called) impasto,” added Gambone. The work of Gambone, Daigle, and Llanso will be among the creations of the nearly 50 professional artists who will take part in the Landis Woods Outdoor Fine Art Show that will be held rain or shine on the Boettcher House Museum grounds, 2369 Lititz Pike, Neffsville, on Saturday, Sept. 28, from See Art Show pg 3
Artists who will exhibit at the annual Landis Woods Outdoor Art Show on the Boettcher House grounds on Sept. 28 will include (front, from left) Lisa Madenspacher, Carrie Monique Daigle, (back) Stephen Gambone, Paris Llanso, and Jennifer Cavalcante.

“Our key words are accessibility, affordability, and adaptability as far as creating Gospel-rich materials and getting them out (to missionaries),” said Tom Luttmann, executive director of Bible Visuals International (BVI), 650 Main St., Akron. In employing those principles, Luttmann emphasized that the message is not compromised. “Jesus Christ - yesterday, today, and forever,” said Luttmann. “How we do what we do has changed, but not the message.” BVI will celebrate 60 years of supplying missionaries around the world with ways of delivering that message at the organization’s annual banquet at Shady Maple Smorgasboard, 129 Toddy Drive, East Earl, on Friday, Oct. 25, at 6 p.m. A gluten-free meal option will be available.
