University of Saint Mary Press Release on My Early Summer Shows

The University of Saint Mary just published a new press release on my early summer exhibition schedule (though I have another application out, so I may have more to share coming up!).

Art Program Director Honored for Her Masterpieces

(Leavenworth, Kan.)—The University of Saint Mary Art Program Director Shelby Prindaville was recently selected for a solo exhibition in the All Souls Gallery at All Souls Unitarian Universalist Church at 4501 Walnut Street, Kansas City, Mo. The public is invited to an opening reception for the exhibit on Friday, April 22, from 6-7 p.m. Her work can be viewed in the gallery April 14-May 20, Monday through Friday 10 a.m.-4 p.m. and Sunday 9 a.m.-2 p.m.
 
Prindaville was also juried into the 47th Annual Smoky Hills Art Exhibition at Hays Art Center at 112 E. 11th Street, Hays, Kan. The annual exhibition is a statewide fine art competition open to any artist currently living in Kansas. Juror Mark Hartman selected Prindaville’s “Perspective” to be included in the show. The public is invited to view the piece, along with the other selections, from April 29-June 8. An opening reception and awards ceremony is scheduled for Friday, April 29, from 6:30-9:30 p.m.
 
“I am very pleased that my work is being recognized by each of these organizations,” said Prindaville. “I hope my art inspires viewers to reflect and deepen their connections with the natural world through my pieces' thematic exploration of environmental conservation and sustainability.”
 
In addition to both of these achievements, Prindaville was accepted to a summer artist residency program at Pays'art in La Maison Verte (The Green House) at the Botanical Garden of Marnay-sur-Seine in France. The residency will culminate in her onsite "Garden Lore" exhibition opening June 24.

Solo Exhibition at All Souls Gallery in Kansas City

Here I am, beginning to install the show.

Here I am, beginning to install the show.

This Monday, the All Souls Gallery coordinator reached out to me asking me if I would do a solo exhibition in their space, preferably to be installed immediately though later in the year was also an option.  I accepted their invitation and said that immediately was actually a great time for my show schedule.  So yesterday afternoon, I stopped by and installed the show; the elapsed time from invitation to installation was two days!

Below, please find the pertinent information regarding the reception and overall exhibition details, and if you're free and in the area I'd appreciate it if you'd consider stopping by the opening (wine and cheese will be served)!

Opening reception: next Friday, April 22nd from 6-7pm
Location: All Souls Gallery is located in the All Souls Unitarian-Universalist Church at 4501 Walnut Street, Kansas City, MO, 64111
