Renaissance Art Gallery Director, Fern Christian, with Kathy
Hollet, was honored with TSAA’s
Community Service award at their 2013 Christmas Dinner. Both of these strong women have served on TSAA's
board of Directors, served as president, and have literally spent thousands
of hours on countless committees to support TSAA's mission and its
membership.
Fern and Kathy are the first recipients of TSAA's
Community Service Award. Recipients of
the award must have a minimum of 10 years of uninterrupted membership and
community service in the association to be eligible for this award. Both Fern and Kathy have far exceeded these
minimums and set the bar high for future award recipients.
A member of Tri-State Artists Association since 1968, Fern
has been supportive of artists in the Tri-State area and is the founder and
director of an artist-cooperative gallery, the Renaissance Art Gallery. She
also teaches painting on Monday mornings from 10:00 am until noon.
Kathy has worked tirelessly whether she is mentoring new members, teaching, or writing grants. Fern has spend over a decade building the Renaissance Gallery for local (coop)artists. The Renaissance gallery hosts a national show which brings art from all over the United States and abroad to the Tri-State region.
