The Bethlehem Palette Club

The Bethlehem Palette Club The objective of the organization is to stimulate local and public interest in the fine arts and artists in the city of Bethlehem and surrounding area.

Membership consists of artists and those interested in the arts. The Bethlehem Palette Club sponsors art exhibits for its members each year. Several are juried with prizes awarded. One is a non-juried show which allows every member to participate. The Bethlehem Palette Club offers year round opportunities for members to create and learn. During Wednesdays in the summertime, “Paint-outs” are schedu

led at various town and country locations where members can enjoy painting outdoors. During wintertime “Paint-ins” take place each Wednesday morning at the The College Hill Moravian Church, 72 W. Laurel Street, Bethlehem, PA. where a live model poses for portrait painting. The Club organizes two (usually 3 to 5 day) workshops per year which are taught by prominent artists for members who want expert instruction. Bus trips are also part of the Club`s activity. A popular one-day trip to New York City occurs in spring. Members go to Museums of Art and the American Watercolor Society show at the Salmagundi Club. Three or four day painting excursions are also sometimes available.

We are very excited to present Bucks County artist, Tracy Everly, as our guest this Sunday, February 15, at 1:30 at our general meeting. Join Tracy for a live still life painting demonstration of flowers. Working from life in oil paint,
she’ll paint quickly yet thoughtfully - demonstrating her approach to getting a strong start.

I am a representational painter aiming to capture feeling in addition to what I see. I paint intuitively from direct experience, staying in the moment.
