Drop Off: The Language of Water Exhibition
CALL FOR ARTISTS
Exhibition On View: May 7 – June 4
Drop-off Dates: May 1-2 
SCAHC Spring Street Gallery – 133 Spring Street | Newton, NJ 07860
For centuries, water has defined boundaries, brought people together, and split them apart. We build cities along rivers and lakes, build damns to generate power, and ship materials across oceans and rivers.
In this exhibition, we invite you to explore water in any way that feels meaningful to you: as a subject, a material, a setting, or an idea. Consider its movement and rhythm, nature that lives on or around coastlines and lakes, and how bodies of water like oceans and rivers can wash things away or help new life grow. Water changes what it touches—and is constantly changing itself.
You can register for this exhibition in advance on our website at:

Entry fees are $10 per piece for Members and $15 per piece for non-members with a maximum of 3 pieces. All artists 18 years of age and older are invited to participate. 
If you have any questions, you can call SCAHC at 973-383-0027 or visit the gallery at 133 Spring Street in Newton, NJ.

Luminous Watercolors is a four-session course designed for learners with little to moderate watercolor experience who want to develop confidence, control, and superior artistic expression. Students will explore essential watercolor techniques with an emphasis on luminosity – the use of light, layering and color harmony to create vibrant, glowing paintings.
Denise Chocchiaro is an award-winning watercolor artist whose work has been widely recognized and published in several magazines. Through luminous washes and transparent color, Denise captures intimate, magical moments that reveal not only the form of her subjects but their essence and spirit. Denise has taught watercolor classes and private students for many years and is known for her supportive and inspiring teaching style.
