The Savannah College of Art and Design will present its first Art Materials Trade Show, offering an array of art materials at discounted prices, Oct. 5-6, 9 a.m. - 5 p.m., and Oct. 7, 10 a.m. - 3 p.m., at the River Club, 3 Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd.
The trade show’s exhibition hall will feature more than 20 vendors who will demonstrate the latest and best art materials available — all of which will be for sale at a discounted price during the three-day event.
Among the vendors is Occhuzzie Paint Co., which is owned by SCAD alumnus Lance Main (B.F.A., painting, 2000).
Participants at the trade show also will have the opportunity to attend lectures by authorities on art conservation, painting, history and architecture. In addition, attendees can pre-register for three-hour, hands-on workshops taught by SCAD faculty, local artists and National Gallery of Art representatives. Lectures will be held Oct. 3-5 at the Telfair’s Jepson Center for the Arts, 207 W. York St., while art workshops will be housed at various SCAD facilities and studios Oct. 5-7.
The trade show was conceived and organized by professors in the foundation studies department. Foundation studies faculty are also teaching some of the hands-on workshops.
