Judith Carr and Joanne Cullen, Pacific Palisades Art Association members, will exhibit six of their paintings in Affinity Bank on Sunset Boulevard. This will be the first installment of the “Art in Our Community” program, through which merchants will display work by local artists.
Working on behalf of the Art Association, Carr says that she visited many merchants in the Village and received positive feedback on the idea of exhibiting artwork from Association members. She found Affinity Bank Branch Manager Shela Winston to be receptive to the idea, “community-minded and very encouraging to our art association.” She also received an enthusiastic response from Denton Jewelers.
Cullen, resident of the Palisades since 1952, spent many years as a therapist and art teacher. Her commissioned mural is at St. Matthew’s Church, and a painting of hers is also on display at the Museum of Tolerance in West Los Angeles.
Carr, a 20-year Palisadian, sells and rents art through LACMA’s Art Rental Gallery. She also produces and exhibits in the annual Pacific Palisades Art Association art show on the Village Green.
The paintings will be up and for sale for two months at Affinity Bank, 15310 Sunset.
A reception for the artists will be held Friday, July 25, from 12:30 to 2:30 p.m. at Affinity Bank, 15310 Sunset Blvd.
