Spooky Things to do

St. Augustine Art Association to host Tactile, Member Show Exhibitsby Eric Rakov   October is National Sensory Processing Awareness Month, and the St. Augustine Art Association will be hosting a tactile exhibit with the Florida DeafBlind Association and sponsored by VyStar Credit Union. Not only is the art fun to look at, but for the blind and visually impaired, it’s engaging and interactive. The artists push the limits of conventional visual art to create sculptures, reliefs, mixed media, ceramics, and fiber art that can be enjoyed and experienced by everyone (hand washing as well as sanitizer will be available and encouraged). Each piece has a Braille sign, made by students from the Florida School for the Deaf and the Blind (FSDB) to make the art even more accessible. An installation of art done by FSDB students who attend the Blind Ambition Art Club is also on display in the exhibit. As the summer months come to a close, the St. Augustine Art Association will feature an exciting exhibition season starting with its annual Fall Members Show, on display during the month of October. Local and regional artists have stayed busy these past few months and are thrilled to have new work in the gallery and online. This annual exhibition is a testament to the vibrancy of the local art scene and includes works in a variety of style, medium and subjects. Artists of all skill levels and backgrounds are able to showcase their work in the Fall Members Show and be awarded for their artistic achievements. Pieces will be judged and prizes awarded by our show sponsor, 97Park Residential and Commercial Real Estate.
