12 noon to 5:00 PM
Please respond to the following questions to Irene or any CAL board member ASAP.
* Are you willing to demonstrate your art.?
* Know anyone who is willing to do face painting?

July - Pam LaRocco
I paint because I am inspired by
what I see, feel, and touch.
Regardless of the subject it has
to speak to me in some way. My
goal is to draw in my viewer and
show them my own emotional
reaction to the subject. Art has
the power to make one see
things in a new light. It allows
us to develop a love for places and things that we would
otherwise not have noticed and helps us discover the
beauty that is before us.
I am unconditionally committed to developing whatever
talents and abilities I have so that I can create art of the
highest standard I am capable of. This has taken me on
an exploration of many different mediums and genres of
art. Watercolors have become my favorite medium to
work in but my journey continues in learning about
others.
I have tried to interpret things as I feel inside and with
sincerity. I hope my personal expressions of things dear
to me touch you, please the spirit and fill your life with
joy. I hope to always be growing as an artist.
I have exhibited at shows in Canton, Akron, and
Massillon. In 2008 I had a solo show at The Little Art
Gallery in North Canton and have a painting in their
Permanent Collection. My works are collected by
individuals throughout the United States.

Coming Exhibit at CMA
Scrimmage: Football in American Art from the Civil War to the Present (Aug. 1 – Oct. 30, 2017) Scrimmage: Football in American Art from the Civil War to the Present investigates the history of football imagery by prominent American artists and photographers beginning with Winslow Homer’s
engravings for Harper’s Weekly at the close of the Civil War and culminating with the work of contemporary artists such as Catherine Opie and Shaun Leonardo. Featuring more than 60 artworks, which represent a variety of media including prints, paintings, sculpture, photographs and video, the exhibition contains works assembled from the Smithsonian American Art Museum, the National Portrait Gallery, the Figge Art Museum, Denver Art Museum, The Rockwell Museum, The Museum of Fine Arts - Houston, Yale University, Canton Museum of Art, and numerous other public and private collections. The imagery in Scrimmage attests to the fact that football has played a significant role in American cultural history for the last 150 years. Scrimmage is the first scholarly exhibition to survey football in art and to demonstrate that a multitude of artists have made important images of this quintessentially American sport. This special exhibition is organized by the Gregory Allicar Museum of Art (formerly the University Art Museum) at Colorado State University, and the Jorden Schnitzer Museum of Art at the University of Oregon.
