SUMMARY:2025 Holiday Party & Annual Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Holiday Party & Annual Meeting\nThursday\, December 4\, 2025at The Barnsider (2112 Route 9\, LG)5:30pm – Cocktail Hour • 6:30pm – Dinner and Meeting \nThe Lake George Arts Project is headed to our favorite BBQ restaurant to toast an amazing 2025! We hope our friends and members can join us for an evening of great company\, a little bit of Arts Project business\, and a celebration of The Arts Project and all that we do. \nSocial & Cocktail Hour with appetizers starts at 5:30pm\, followed by an amazing buffet dinner and the Annual Meeting at 6:30pm.We’ve got entertainment and a cash bar. \nSpecial Recognition: Mayor Ray Perry\, Village of Lake George \nFrom the very beginning\, the Lake George Arts Project has relied on the Shepard Park bandstand as a centerpiece of our mission. It has been our stage\, our gathering space\, and the place where generations have come together to experience free performances by thousands of artists. Our Summer Concert Series\, Jazz at the Lake\, and countless special events have found a home there – programs that have introduced new voices\, built community traditions\, and brought world-class talent to the town and village we all love. The bandstand has never been just a bandstand; it has been the heart of our work\, and a symbol of what arts and community can create together. \nThis year\, we will be honoring Mayor Ray Perry for his tireless work realizing a new Shepard Park. He brought partners together\, secured the much-needed resources\, and inspired all of us to reimagine a space that has had an immeasurable impact on the lives of residents and visitors. His vision for the project not only strengthens the cultural heart of our community\, it establishes a world-class performance venue that will stand as a testament to what a shared commitment to the arts\, bold leadership\, and collective purpose can achieve. \n\n\n\n\n \nTICKETS: $50 for members / $55 for non-membersPlease RSVP by December 1\, 2025Members Save $5!\n \nThe RSVP deadline has passed but we would still love to have you join us! If you are interested in attending\, please email Tanya (Tanya@lakegeorgearts.org) to coordinate payment at the door.

The allure in our everyday surroundings is revealed in my work through an intimate and systematic interpretation of color\, space\, and time. \nBIO \nRichard Garrison received his BS in Studio Art from the College of Saint Rose\, Albany\, NY in 1993 and a MFA from Cornell University\, Ithaca\, NY in 1995.

SUMMARY:Seth Butler: Mending the Path
DESCRIPTION:Seth Butler:  Mending the PathMarch 11 through April 11\, 2026\nArtist’s ReceptionSaturday\, March 14th4:00 – 6:00 PM\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Artist’s Statement\nI paint surrealistic landscapes\, using photographs as only a touchstone from which to branch out\, and creatively interpret what the imagination sees. As I dip my toes into fantasy realms\, reality is never a safety net\, but just the bottom of the creative swimming pool. I take the viewer and myself floating to the surface\, as I seek not only to show the surface beauty of the natural world\, but also its timeless and bold nature. To stop\, breathe\, and reflect on the mystery of nature is to reinvigorate our intent\, and reflect personal restoration. As I extend the space of possibilities\, the act of such is merely a reflection of the natural worldliving simply. \nBio\nSeth Butler is a fine artist based in Upstate New York\, specializing in capturing contemporary landscape and fantasy scenes in bold color and decisive markings and patterns. American\, born in 1974\, Mr. Butler attended the UAlbany MFA program\, where his work spun off of fantasy subjects\, embracing landscape as a  conduit of information and the basis of future work\, without forgetting that creative interpretation as the vehicle to steer. \nMr. Butler works primarily in oil\, in a range of dimensions. He is currently working from a collection of nature photos taken on serene nature walks in Upstate NY. Color and shadow are accentuated to explore the abstraction of form combined with not-so-obvious color choices. The landscape sets the table at its base\,   allowing for new language toemerge. \nThe artist is inspired by Edvard Munch and Pierre Bonnard\, to name a few\, and by contemporaries such as Peter Doig and Shara Hughes. He is seeking a mutual conversation that welcomes all perspectives. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Top: (Detail)  Music is Outside\, 2025\, Oil\, 22″ x 28″Above: Trail with Dad\, 2024\, Oil\, 22″ x 28″Rolling Hills\, 2021\, Giclee Print\, 30″ x 40″Rejuvenation/Rocks are My Guide\, 2026\,Oil\, 30″ x 40″\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Courthouse Gallery\n1 Lower Amherst StreetLake George\, NY 12845518-668-2616\nHours: Wednesday – Friday: 12:00 – 5:00 PMSaturday: 12:00 – 4:00 PM\nOr give us a call if you are in town.
