Friends of the FFL Art Gallery - 2010 Schedule:The September Art exhibit will feature works from the CNY Watercolor Society. The Central New York Watercolor Society Juried Show is held annually and is currently rotated each year between the Cooperstown Art Association, The Fayetteville Free Library and Utica College. This year the Show is to be at the Fayetteville Free Library. It will be on display from September 1st to September 30th. All Associate and Signature Members of CNYWS are allowed to enter two paintings. All work is juried. The juror for this year's show is Anne Cappuccilli from the Limestone Gallery. Depending on the number selected by the Juror, sixty or more paintings will be on display. This will be the third CNYWS Annual Show to be held at the Fayetteville Free Library.
