Local artists and ArtCenter members will make 1,000 bowls at our ceramics studio at the School of Art in the coming months to donate to the cause. During the two-day event in Palm Beach and West Palm Beach on February 13 and 14, five-star restaurants and chefs will create signature soups, and local bakers will provide rustic breads. Guests donate $25, select an artisan bowl, share in a simple meal of bread and soup and keep their empty bowls as a powerful reminder of all of the bowls that remain empty in Palm Beach County. 100% of the proceeds benefit the Palm Beach County Food Bank. You are invited to create ceramic bowls with us to donate. Sign-up at the School of Art to set up time to work on your bowls. (You don't need to know how to throw on the wheel; pinch pots and coil built are great, too, and we will show you how!) We are pleased to be partnering with the innovative Beyond Blind Institute for the “Brushes of Blindness” program. Our faculty welcomes the visually impaired students twice a month to our art studios. Here they are able to explore the ceramic arts, multi-media sculpture, painting and collage while creating pieces of art to sell on their online gallery. In our outreach program, (ArtReach) we offer art instruction and materials at no cost to underserved populations and programs where individuals would otherwise have little opportunity to participate in artistically creative processes. Students are those with mental and/or physical handicaps, as well as those who are economically disadvantaged or elderly. Our programs bring the joy of artistic expression to those where it is lacking and also brings students to our location to experience the Museum, Gallery & School of Art first hand. Our comprehensive curriculums address the specific needs of these students. This year we expect to serve 1,800 individuals through our ArtReach programs and to offer them unique learning experiences using art as the catalyst. The positive impact this program has on the individual students and our community is remarkable, and would not be possible without the continued support of our members and donors. To participate, sponsor or contribute to any of these programs, please contact Cynthia Trone, Director of Education, at (561) 748-8737. Free Special Needs Art Program Special needs students, ages 16 to adult, create art in a group setting which facilitates art education, social skills and communication, as well as build confidence and self-esteem. They have an opportunity to socialize with their peers and enjoy a tour of the Museum. A snack will be provided and students bring their lunch. This FREE program is underwritten by The Loxahatchee Club Educational Foundation. Space is limited and a reservation is required. To enroll, call Sheri or Evelyne at (561) 746-3101.

To reserve your seat, call (561) 746-3101 or email Info@LighthouseArts.org 3rd Thursday, December 18, 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. The genesis of this absorbing lecture was an offhand comment from a museum curator who said, “You conservators have the most interesting stories.” And, indeed it is true – as you will see in this lecture. It takes the viewer through a modern conservation lab with illustrations of high-tech equipment and its use as it supports the conservators’ skills. Then it moves into the war stories, showing damaged art, and the stories behind the damage (one painting still had cannon ball holes in it from the War Between the States) before showing the truly breathtaking restoration results. Another is a badly damaged painting found behind a furnace in a Palm Beach mansion which, when restored, turned out to be a Monet. (Lecture in collaboration with Friends of the Uffizi.) These are two of a number of art works with fascinating stories. The program also delves into fakes and the use of modern technology to detect them. Tibetan Monks Sacred Arts Tour We are honored to welcome the Tibetan Monks of Drepung Gomang Monastery to the ArtCenter Museum from February 9-16, 2015. The Drepung Gomang monks are renowned for the Sacred Art of Sand Mandala Construction. There will be opening ceremonies, informal conversation and socializing as the intricate, colorful and symbolic mandala is created in the main gallery of the Museum. The public is welcome to gather around the eight monks as they work from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. each day creating this powerful work of art. When finished, to symbolize the impermanence of all that exists, the colored sands will be swept up and poured into our ailing Indian River Lagoon to carry healing energy and blessings, as our community joins the monks in a global message of wisdom and compassion. In the months leading up to the monks' arrival, we will be offering Mandala Workshops with Rose Shaw. All ages are welcome to participate in programs surrounding the Sacred Arts Tour to learn about Tibetan culture and traditions. Have a Party in our Museum!

CarolAnne Barone is a selftaught jewelry designer. After working for twelve years as an electrical engineer, she left her career to explore her artistic side. CarolAnne’s designs are inspired by her appreciation for natural beauty and are made to create a look that is bold yet elegant. Deborah Bigeleisen started her first career of more than twenty year in textiles in New York City where she pioneered and owned a global print design company for 18 years. Entrenched since 1998 in her second career as a painter, Bigeleisen's work is represented by fine art dealers and galleries throughout the U.S. and is prominently included in private and corporate collections world-wide.

Barbara Carswell graduated from the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York and has more than 30 years of experience in advertising design. Since her move to Florida 16 years ago, she has focused on her watercolor painting, studying with multiple instructors, including Karen Bastidas. Jennifer Chapparo has been an artist all her life. With a grandfather that was a noted sculpture and art professor in Iowa and New York City, she knew from a very early age that it was inevitable that she would be an artist in some kind. Jennifer has worked with many different materials, including pen and ink, watercolor, acrylic, ceramics, fabric and computers. Faculty She received a Bachelor of Arts degree in Design from UCLA, and then went on to spend 25 years in graphic design for advertising and marketing. Suzanne Connors is a fiber artist. As a seamstress and a designer, she has always been intrigued by textiles while layering color and combining different tactile fibers. Her work is inspired by her time spent in South Florida and the Caribbean islands, such as the colors of a setting sun, the Indigo blues of the sky and the sea, tropical flowers. Suzanne specializes in Shibori and Batik. These art forms are an excuse to use vibrant colors and simple shapes to produce designs, without having to worry too much about the details –just as in life, there are no "mistakes" with fiber, and everything is always subject to change. Norma Conway, an Indiana native, graduated from the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts. After moving to Florida in 1958, she started work as a portrait painter, eventually setting up a portrait studio in Palm Beach Towers.

For the most part she is self-taught and has relied on trial and error and instinct to help her create her one of a kind designs. Using the ocean as her inspiration, many of her pieces reflect the colors and tranquility of the sea. She prefers using natural stones, as they are all unique and give each piece it's own personality. Faculty 19 Ted Matz is a graduate of Kendall College of Art & Design.

Her current and favorite position is a Home School Mother for the past four years to her two children. Heidi Mayfield is a mixed media artist. She is always exploring new mediums and new ways to use and apply them. She currently uses encaustic wax as her main medium. In her early artistic years, she was seriously devoted to the art of Batik and wax resist. She combines the use of oil paints, oil sticks, acrylic, charcoal, pastel, wire and whatever else that lands in her path into her art. She would best describe herself as a process artist, meaning she is most inspired with the process of creating rather than the end result. She paints in the manner of acting and responding, often with only a vague minimal idea of her artistic destination. And to Heidi, that is what her art is about...the journey. Jim Rigg is a graduate of Wichita State University with a Fine Arts degree in Graphics. He is an accomplished watercolorist with an innovative and unique style. "I enjoy experimentation, believing it extends my boundaries, both in conceptual and contemporary watercolor techniques. My finished paintings are projections of my imagination, and this, for me, is the great adventure of painting: the exploitation of areas where the imagination can take over and intuitively guide the hand. The challenges to me are inventive compositions, varied textures and color exploration - offering each painting a sense of time, space and solitude." Cara McKinley received her BFA from Florida Atlantic University. Although she has been a potter and ceramist for more than a decade, she still makes time for painting, warm glass and jewelry making. Cara has been an instructor in the public school system and at private and nonprofit art centers. She has been a staff member at the ArtCenter for eleven years and is the School of Art Manager.

Betty Wilson began her artistic career in the early ’80s as she painted faces “After Picasso” and “After Matisse” on clothing. “Made Ugly by Me!” was the name of the clothing collection. Later in the ‘90s, she taught herself to work in clay with some help from friends. While looking for a new canvas for her painted faces, she discovered the fused-glass technique, one of the oldest hot-glass methods, sometimes referred to as “warm glass.” Fall 2014 Visiting Artists Richard Burkett has made pottery for over 40 years, starting in 1970 with a summer job throwing ashtrays on the potter's wheel for the late Indiana potter Richard Peeler. Burkett established his own Wild Rose Pottery in 1973 on a farm near Bainbridge, Indiana, where he made salt-glazed pottery for about ten years. Returning to school in 1983, Richard completed a dual MFA in ceramics and phototography at Indiana University-Bloomington in 1986. He has taught ceramics since that time, first at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and since 1989 at San Diego State University, where he is currently a Professor of Art. Richard's work continues to include a range of ceramic objects, from functional stoneware and porcelain to clay and mixed-media sculpture. Elio Camacho was three years old when his family moved from Madeira Island, about 540 miles southwest of Lisbon, Portugal, to California’s Silicon Valley. As a youngster he developed a keen interest in American comic books and became an incessant doodler. He didn’t necessarily think about a career in art then. In 1997, on somewhat of a whim, he began taking life drawing classes at the Palo Alto Art League. And the rest is history, as they say. Camacho also studied with Ovanes Berberian and, from him, he garnered lessons that still guide his creative process today. Morgan Samuel Price is considered to be among the best of the true plein air painters of today. Morgan has traveled in America and Europe painting en plein air and has been in 63 invitational national exhibitions and received many national awards. She authored Oil Painting with a Basic Palette and Turn on the Light a touchstone to Plein Air Painting.

Most of their work is thrown by Charlie who takes time to make a very smooth surface that will later be polished with terra sigillata. These pots are then finished with one of the smoke-fired techniques that results in a shiny unglazed surface, brilliant with the colors of saggar firing, the bold blacks and whites of naked raku or the subtle marks of horsehair and ferric chloride. Charlie has a Fine Arts Degree in Pottery. He has been featured in Clay Times, Ceramics Monthly, and Studio Potter as well as in several raku and alternative firing books. Charlie has exhibited extensively in the Southeast, the Western U.S., and as far away as Canada and Norway. He also teaches workshops throughout the U.S. and Canada in a variety of subjects including, Raku Methods, Saggar-firing, PitFiring, Raku Kiln Building and Throwing Techniques. Linda has Masters in Anthropology. She collaborates with Charlie to create some of the unique surfaces on their pottery, including saggar-firing, naked raku, and carvings and slip designs. Linda has written a number of articles on pottery for Ceramics Monthly and Clay Times. She is also featured in magazine articles on saggar firing, and in several books. She co-teaches workshops with her husband Charlie. The Cultural Council of Palm Beach County is collaborating with the Lighthouse ArtCenter to raise funds for the ArtCenter’s specific projects.

There is NO prorating in Winter or Spring sessions. MISSED CLASSES: The Lighthouse ArtCenter staff always does their best to accommodate all students. The School of Art is NOT responsible for providing students with make-up classes when a student has missed a class for any reason not the fault of the faculty or the School of Art. There are no refunds or make-ups for missed classes. Upon request, we will issue a tax-deductible contribution receipt for missed classes. COURSE CHANGES/CANCELLED COURSES: The School of Art reserves the right to substitute instructors for any of its classes at any point in any term and to change its calendar, withdraw or modify a course at any time. Classes or workshops cancelled due to inclement weather or instructor absence will be rescheduled according to studio availability. Students enrolled in courses which are cancelled by the School of Art will receive a full refund. In the event that a course or workshop is canceled, every effort will be made to notify students as quickly as possible. Off-site classes (i.e. Plein Air) will receive emails the evening before class announcing the location. SAFETY & LIABILITY: While the student can be assured that every reasonable safety precaution will be followed, the ArtCenter will not assume liability for injuries that occur within the scope of the subject area for which the student is enrolled. By completing registration online or in person for any course, the student agrees to assume all reasonable liability from injuries related to the scope of the work being taught and releases the Lighthouse ArtCenter from any liability claims related to any injuries and/or accidents that may occur.
