Okay, it’s time to take a deep breath, slow down a little and enjoy
the first days of summer. The winter was long, the spring seemed
short and everyone is frazzled. We should not be running around like
maniacs all the time. Everyone I talk to tells me they get home
utterly exhausted, including myself.
A great way to relax is to take a class through the Center for the
Arts.
It’s not too late to register for some fun time in the arts! Pick up
a catalogue at the Glenwood Springs Center for the Arts, the Glenwood
Springs Community Center, and at any of the local libraries.
We are offering 84 classes in dance, pottery, fine arts, crafts and
theater arts for all levels and all ages. We are also offering stone
sculpting and silversmithing for adults at all levels.
It’s easy to register. If you can’t come in, we can take your
information over the phone. The Summer 2004 session has started and
even if you’ve missed the first class, we’ll pro-rate it. Get over
here!

Join us for an Armenian feast
Feast Your Eyes on the life’s work of Ariel Agemian in the private
home gallery of Annig and Howard Raley. Feast on authentic Armenian
food and fine wine from 7-10 p.m. Saturday, June 12. Armenian food,
Armenian art and great music will enchant you as you view the life
work of Ariel Agemian, a gold-medal European artist, and father of
Annig Raley, who has generously opened her home gallery for the
evening.
Over 85 stunning oils, oil washes, and exquisite pastels portray an
artist’s historic journey from beginning to end.
Agemian refused to sell his artwork, believing that they should be
kept to be shared with others. Annig and her husband Howard have
realized her father’s vision and are opening their home gallery at
1211 Bennett Ave. – to benefit the Center for the Arts Renovation
Project. Tickets are available at the Center for the Arts, $35 in
advance and $40 at the door.
