Events

On that Thursday and Friday the Parkersburg arts and culture district will be taken over by Piccalilli Parkersburg, a two-day arts conference for working artists, art educators, college art students and arts organizations. This will be two-days of workshops, hands-on art making, networking and celebration.

Piccalilli Parkersburg features two tracks, one is all about creative entrepreneurship and the financial side of being a working artist. The other track includes workshops by some of the region’s premier artists with hands-on art making opportunities. On Thursday evening Piccalilli Parkersburg participants will be treated to a multi-venue reception. This “Happening” will include food, music and a pop-up exhibit of participating artists’ work.

All registered conference goers are invited to bring up to two pieces of their original art to display at the pop-up exhibit on Thursday night! The idea behind this conference is that it is participatory. Learn from presenters and learn from one another.

Continental breakfasts, Thursday lunch and Thursday evening reception fare are all included.
