The exhibition of works of Kansas
artists, to be held under the auspices
of the Topeka Art Guild, on the upper
floor of Grace Cathedral Guild hall
Eighth avenue and Taylor street, will
open Monday evening, october 27,
with a private view for the members
of the Art Guild.
Letters of invitation were sent out
to all parts of Kansas urging the well
known artists to contribute work to
this exhibition, and as favorable re-
sponses were received from the major
ity, the works displayed should be
many and of high quality.
The collection will probably con-
tinue in Topeka for about two weeks.
A series of receptions and teas has
been planned by the Art Guild menu
bers, to be held in the exhibition
rooms in the afternoons and evenings
while the pictures are here. Such a
plan was carried thru most success
fully during two or three of the
guilds exhibitions last year.
When the exhibition in Topeka has
ended the collection is to be kept to-
gether, and will be sent to various
towns in the state, especially to those
having chapters of the Kansas Art
league. of which the Topeka Art guild
is part.
The president of the Topeka Art
guild this year is Miss Marian Peers,
who is an enthusiastic and tireless
worker in the cause of art. and her
self an artist of much promise.
Mr. L. A. Gillette of Topeka, who
has painted many beautiful pictures
of Colorado, Rocky mountain scenery.
is secretary of the guild The large
amount of necessary work already ac-
complished at the Guild hall. in prep
aration for hanging the exhibit. is al
most entirely the work of Mr.. Gillette.
