reception on Thursday evening February 16 from
6 to 9pm at the House of Sweden at 2900 K
Street NW. CAG Presents Georgetown ARTS, sponsored
by CAG and the House of Sweden, along with several
generous patrons, will showcase talents of Georgetown’s
many artists – “emerging” to established, young to old,
working in classes, studios, and plein air.
Following Thursday evening’s opening reception,
Georgetown ARTS 2012 will be open daily Friday, February
17, through Monday, February 20, from 11am to 5pm,
featuring works by Georgetown residents — and artists
who have studios in Georgetown. Artists Edward “Bear”
Miller, Camilla Bozzoli and Robin Hill will offer demonstrations
of portraiture, watercolor and oil painting during
the course of the show. Art work on view will include oil,
acrylic and watercolor painting, prints, sculpture, photography,

with young children.
