Carnegie Painted V
In the honor and memory of Jean Salvato
Hosted for the fifth year in a row by the 3rd Street Gallery, "Carnegie Painted" celebrates images and impressions of the town of Carnegie, PA (at left, East Main Street, Chuck Percherke, last year's best of show winner).
Jean was the center of our arts community, encouraging artists to produce, and encouraging arts organizations to find a home in Carnegie. This show was originated by her and she was always glad to have her gallery host this celebration of our town. We hope to honor her memory with a spectacular show this year.

Whether just for
practice or in order to create a finished piece of artwork, artists
often render what they see, drawing and painting "en plein
air" or simply rendering images that are familiar to them
in their studio. A "painted" show brings together all
the images of one locale, be it a region, city, small town, neighborhood
or single street.
In conjunction with Carnegie's annual Arts & Heritage Festival, "Carnegie Painted" gives visitors to the festival and to the town in general a view of the town they might not have seen as artists exhibit their impressions and renderings of Carnegie's sights and scenes.
Many thanks to Fidelity
Bank for underwriting our 2005 show!
