Geraldine
McKeown Meets SunRise Artists
On March 20, local artist Geraldine McKeown met with
members of the SunRise Art Studio. On this day, McKeown spent a couple hours
describing her watercolor techniques with the group. Members of this group
meet every Tuesday to learn about art and artistic techniques, and then use
what they learn to create their own works of art.
SunRise staff member Megan Torello leads this group. At
the weekly meetings, she teaches about famous artists and their methods of
artistic expression. SunRise is a local, residential program managed by
Upper Bay Counseling and Support Services, Inc. This program provides
housing for clients in need.
Geraldine McKeown will serve as the Honorary
Chairperson for this year’s “Expressions of Healing” Art Exhibit. Each year,
Upper Bay Counseling, in collaboration with Cecil County Arts Council,
presents this exhibit at the Elkton Arts Center during the month of May.
