CASA DE LINDA ART STUDIO & GALLERY CELEBRATING 5TH ANNIVERSARY
Casa de Linda Art Studio and Gallery will mark its fifth anniversary with an Open House on May 1-3. The celebration continues through May 31 with a Month-of-May Studio Sale.
Canyon Lake artist Linda Calvert Jacobson left her position as managing editor of the Times Guardian in 2003 to pursue being an full time marketing consultant, freelance writer, artist and art instructor. Jacobson and her husband David opened Casa de Linda in one of the studio spaces on the second floor of the New Braunfels Art League Gallery in May 2004.
Jacobson teaches weekly acrylic painting classes for ages 10 through adult drawing workshops for adults in the studio. She also offer an extensive Summer Art Camp program for ages 5-13 every June through mid-August. In addition to using the space for teaching, the studio also serves as a small gallery to exhibit Jacobson’s wildflower paintings, which are sold to art and nature lovers around the world. Her floral designs have also been licensed internationally and she is represented by two agents, one in the U.S. and one in the U.K.
The three-day Open House celebration will include an expanded exhibit of the artist’s most recent wildflower paintings, complimentary refreshments, and specials on Jacobson’s original art and gifts. Visitors can also learn about the 2009 Summer Camp Program and sign up for a drawing that will be held at the end May.
“Any business that has stayed in business for five years has earned the right to celebrate,” Jacobson says. “But I wouldn’t be here if it weren’t for the support of my many students, collectors and friends. This Open House is a way to say ‘thank you’ to everyone who has helped me so far and to also encourage people who have not yet visited my studio to do so.”
Hours for the open house on May 1 and 2 (Friday and Saturday) are 10 a.m.-5 p.m. On Sunday, May 3, Casa de Linda will be open from 12-5 p.m. The studio will be open on Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and by appointment though May 31.
New Braunfels Art League Gallery is located at 239 W. San Antonio Street. Casa de Linda Art Studio and Gallery is on the second floor and is accessible from either elevator or stairs located in the NBAL Gallery. For more information, call 830-624-5302.
