THANK YOU FROM NEPAL! The Katonah Art Center and the Anderson Chase Gallery extend a heartfelt thank you to the KAC community for your generous donations to Educating Nepal. Your generosity has provided much needed supplies to the people of the Sindhupalchowk district, which was one of the areas most devastated by the recent earthquakes. Through online donations and the Anderson Chase Gallery’s Art for Nepal Earthquake Relief Exhibit, we were able to provide several thousand dollars in relief funds. The restoration efforts in Nepal will take months if not years. Therefore the Anderson Chase Gallery is planning a One Year After-Earthquake Relief Exhibit in 2016 which will feature several Nepali Artists who were not able to get their work here in time for this fundraiser. It is sure to be a dynamic and unique show and provide another surge of relief funds for recovery and restoration. From the director of Educating Nepal, Ashirwad Tripathy “There are no words to express our thanks for supporting us in this hard situation. No matter what devastation has occurred- there are still smiles in the faces of people when we reach the villages with the relief materials.”

Our Sand Mandala Project proved to be a fun and informative process. We are already receiving requests for a repeat! The mandala was brushed away as tradition demands, and deposited in the ocean off Peaks Island Maine, symbolizing the ephemeral nature of life and the world.

The Art of Dogs • The Dogs of Art Dogs go back a long way in life-and in art! In this program, we will explore the history of dogs in art. The evolution of the dog-human relationship will be examined through works of art dating from antiquity through the Modern era. What did dogs mean to the people of ancient Rome? How were they regarded during the medieval-renaissance eras? What did owning dogs represent to the elites of the 18th century? As we answer these questions, we’ll also be looking at how dogs have been rendered, technically, over time. How does a Renaissance dog look-compared with an Expressionist one? You’ll be amazed by the number of dogs that have been painted by the greatest masters in the history of art. Join us on this highly entertaining journey! Workshop Date: 10/4 Sun 3- 5pm

The American “Landscape”

Music lessons in Piano, Guitar, Banjo & Bass. NEW! Flute, Flute Ensemble and Chamber Music! Call the KAC office to schedule.

This program explores the social, cultural and physical “landscape” of American art, as it evolved from the Colonial tradition (steeped in British Art) to such movements as The Hudson River School, Scene Painting, American Impressionism, the Ashcan School and American Modernism. Americans have always been fascinated with our landscapes—be they rural and urban—in terms of both their beauty and their power to function as metaphors for a broad host of topics and issues. We will explore artists’ changing attitudes about nature and its relationship to art, and we’ll examine the indelible connection Americans have with the tangibles and aesthetics of place and space! Workshop Date: 10/25 Sun 3-5pm $28 Dr. Jill Kiefer 1wk

Art as Illusion • Illusion as Art “Illusion” is typically described as something that deceives us by producing a false or misleading impression of reality. But isn’t reality shaped by our perceptions? Throughout time, art has both reflected and helped to define cultures, ideas, beliefs—all of which are our realities. A two-dimensional painting can evoke a three-dimensional appearance—and feeling. Simple lines can create depth and distance. In this program, we’ll explore “art as illusion” and “illusion as art” from tangible and abstract perspectives—to see how they’ve been articulated over time. Join us to discover the surprising ways in which illusion and reality converge in the arts. Workshop Date: 12/6 Sun 3-5pm

Come try this beautiful art form which has been done in Asia for centuries. Silk painting has gained popularity in the US due to the French Serti technique which is easy, clean, fun, and gives you startlingly beautiful results. In the Serti (closing or fence) technique the designs are outlined with gutta or water-based resists, which are applied to white silk that has been pre-washed, dried and stretched (on a stretcher). Once the gutta or water-based resist has dried, it acts as a barrier for the dye or paint—keeping the color within the outlined areas of the design and allowing you to achieve sharply defined borders. After the dye or paint has been properly set, the clear gutta or resist is removed and a defining line the color of the original fabric remains. There is a $20 materials fee for this class. Workshop Date: 11/8 Sun 10am - 2pm $100 + $20 Mirielle Duchesne
