Art At Steepletop: June 28, 2008
Art At Steepleop is an annual festival at The Millay Colony on the crest of a hill on the Steepletop property. The 2008 program will be held held on Saturday, June 28 beginning at noon. From 5 to 8, we will hold a magical cocktail party under a tent overlooking a vista of mountains and meadow. More information will be available closer to the event date.
Notice to Millay Colony Alumni:
The Millay Colony for the Arts is holding its annual event, Art at Steepletop, on Saturday, June 28, 2008. During this event, the public has a rare chance to visit the colony grounds while joining us in celebrating the art, music and writing of past residents.
This year, we're including an added treat, Millay Colony Art Postcards, as a fundraising event. Using a blank card, you're welcome to create a unique postcard in whatever manner inspires you. For those writers and composers, you are invited to write an excerpt from your work or musical composition, anything that gives insight into your creative mind. When you're done, just sign your artwork piece, along with the date of your residency and send to PO Box 3, Austerlitz, NY, 12017 by June 15th. We'll have the postcards on display and for sale during the event on June 28th. Email Calliope at residency@millaycolony.org to receive a blank postcard.
You are also invited to join us for the Art at Steepletop event, we'd love to see former residents here and catch up on what you've been up to. This is also an opportunity to meet up with fellow residents and hang out in the beauty of the colony. If you'd like the opportunity to display artwork, writing & music, please contact Calliope to discuss how this can be done.
Millay Colony alumni are also welcome to continue with the festivities once the event is over after the cocktail party; everyone is welcome to camp out overnight here, whether with a sleeping bag in the main building or in a tent on the grounds. For those of you planning to come and stay, let me know via email.
