Cheltenham Art Center galleries are graced by the vivid colors of paintings from various artists of the Tri-State area. Close to 200 artists have submitted paintings for the 64th Annual Juried Awards Painting Exhibit that runs from April 30 thru May 26, 2006 with an opening reception on April 30, 2006.

Gallery owners Rodger LaPelle and his wife Christine McGinnis, both accomplished artists, will jury this year’s show as a team. Their own work will hang along side the works that they select for the exhibition, giving artists an opportunity to see the vision that played into the selection of work. LaPelle and McGinnis have entered their work in this exhibition for many years, periodically being accepted and selected as prize winners. It is with pleasure that we now invite Rodger and Christine to jury this exhibition.
