A partnership between Golden Artist Colors, Upstate Institute at Colgate University, DCMO, Herkimer and Madison-Oneida BOCES.

Opening Reception March 7, 1-3PM

Golden Artist Colors has partnered with the Earlville Opera House, Upstate Institute at Colgate University, along with the DCMO, Madison-Oneida and Herkimer County BOCES to host its fourth Master Teacher Art Exhibition. The exhibition will feature artwork by nine local art teachers who participated in the recent Master Teacher Program at Colgate University. New this year, the exhibition will also highlight artwork created by students of each art teacher, filling two Galleries with beautiful artwork!

In the summer of 2019, Golden Artist Colors offered a professional painting instruction course for art teachers at Colgate University. The 2-week professional development program, which was focused on helping participants explore a range of painting media and techniques to reinforce or establish their own voice began in mid-July and was instructed by local artist Amy McKinnon. Amy is a painter living and working in upstate New York. She received a BFA from Moore College of Art and Design in painting and ceramics and an MFA from Tulane University in painting. In addition to being a practicing and showing painter, she has also taught painting and drawing at the university level, worked in painting restoration and conservation and also worked in the Lab at Golden Artist Colors answering technical questions of customers, testing and applying paints, and teaching about materials.
