Date: November 10, 2026

Time: 7 PM

Location: Lewisville Grand Theater

Don’t miss our last Member Meeting + Art Talk of the year!

Topics Covered:
• Framing
• Finishing

You work hard creating your artwork. Now it’s time to learn how to prepare it for exhibition!

Proper preparation not only helps ensure a smoother submission and installation process, but also demonstrates attention to detail that judges and prospective buyers appreciate.

GLAA Angel Awards 2026

Date: Sunday, November 15, 2026
Time: 5 PM
Location: Lewisville Grand Theater

Every year, the Greater Lewisville Arts Alliance (GLAA) recognizes outstanding volunteers from its member organizations at the annual Angel Awards.

This year, the Visual Art League of Lewisville is proud to recognize Sandra Tarno, who serves as our Membership Chair and contributes her time and expertise to Technology and Website management.

Volunteer organizations depend on individuals who generously contribute their time, talents, and energy. Much of their work happens behind the scenes, but its impact is felt throughout the organization and the community.

The Angel Awards provide an opportunity to publicly express our appreciation for the countless hours these individuals dedicate to keeping our arts organizations running smoothly.

Congratulations, Sandra, and thank you for everything you do for VAL!

Art Pop-Up at Wayne Ferguson Plaza
(If it rains, it will be inside the Lewisville Grand Theater)

Featured Artist: Darla Bostick

Artist Bio:
“Art is Life!” My images show the world as I see it.

I am a Denton, TX resident with a BFA from Texas Tech University. For 50+ years I have been involved in the arts as an artist, educator and photographer. Love of travel is evidenced in my photographic images which inspire paintings in watercolor or mixed media.

I have visited 90+ countries and use my camera to capture colors, architecture, unique landscapes and people’s daily lives.

I’ve taught art workshops in several states as well as my Annual Art Adventure Abroad: Ireland, Spain, Denmark, Germany, Portugal, Italy, Switzerland, Luxembourg and France. At Ghost Ranch in New Mexico I have taught 20 week-long art workshop/retreats.

My work is recognized by the use of pure colors. Paint is allowed to blend while on the paper to provide vivid images with clean colors.

My work has been accepted to several national and international exhibitions (with awards along the way). Six art associations have honored me with signature status.

I have participated in several public art projects throughout Texas as well as Washington, D.C. Of particular note is my artwork has graced the traffic signal cabinets in Grand Prairie, TX (3 boxes) and San Marcos, TX (3 boxes). In Frisco, TX my artwork was chosen for a banner in the Rail District.

A large mural in my local Walmart covered about 20’ x 10’ showing my art. The parking lot at our Denton Patterson Appleton Art Center includes a public art collaboration involving wood turning, painting, calligraphy, chimes and stained glass. I also frequent artist pop-ups in Lewisville, TX as well as a plein air painter at the Keller Art Walk and the South Lakes, TX Garden Society Tour.
