Lakewood Arts Council serves Jefferson County, and its Community Art Center and Gallery is located at 85 S. Union in Lakewood. LAC supports all of the arts: visual, music, theater, literary. My name is Cindy Haase and I am the LAC Board's President for 2009. As part of our outreach I will be posting items from my viewpoint of the happenings at LAC. You can also visit our official website at www.lakewoodartscouncil.org for information on how to join. It's a great community of friendly people. Check us out, and hopefully join in the fun.

Local Artists Make it "Crystal Clear"

Article Contributed on: 2/8/2010 9:48:26 PM

Approximately 35 local artists took up the challenge to create a variety of exciting works done on the theme of water or glass for the Lakewood Arts Council'scurrent show called "Crystal Clear". The result is approximately 80 pieces that shine and sparkle, filling the exhibit space with everything from colorful marbles to rushing water done in oils, pastels, watercolors, photographs and shimmering stained glass.

Top prize went to Evergreen artist Janet Rundquist Quinn for her oil, aptly titled "Grasses and Water". Second place was won by Denver artist Nancy Raskin for her soft pastel called "Autumn Lilies". Additional merit awards went to Lakewood artist Susan Gordon for her watercolor "Joy II", to Littleton artist Stephen Blecher for his undulating photograph "Libraryland Too", to Arvada artist Scott Nakauchi-Hawn for his highly creative acrylic titled "Still Got All My Marbles" and to Westminster artist Gary Wilkinson for his large stained glass hanging "Viking Moon".

This is the first year the Lakewood Arts Council has sponsored this theme and the results are more than they had anticipated. The exhibit will be on display at their Community Art Center & Gallery, located at 85 S. Union Blvd., Lakewood, through February 26. Viewing hours are 10-5 Monday - Saturday. For additional information, call 303-980-0625 or visit www.lakewoodartscouncil.org
