"Autumn Road" by Melville F. Stark Mel Stark was a Baum School instructor beginning in 1933. Not only was he an instructor, but we was an incredible pastelist, oil, and watercolor painter. The Baum School has many paintings of his in our Circulating Picture Club and an occasional painting or two in our Annual Art Auction!

Day 20's theme for Americans for the Arts #ShowYourArt2020 is repurposed art. We are excited to include a handful of new artists and artisans to our Holiday Pop Up Shop!

Support our sessions. Support our students. Support our Baum School. Since re-opening in July for limited in-person art camps, we have experienced a whirlwind of new beginnings. We have redesigned our studios following CDC and PA guidelines in order to create safe, socially distant classrooms. This, in turn, has significantly reduced our class sizes. We are proud of the precautions that we have implemented while taking a measured and careful approach to reopening. However, s...maller class sizes limit our earned income capabilities, while our expenses have increased in order to make our facility safer. This year, we are asking you to support our class sessions. Your help will allow us to focus on our missionenriching lives through arts education. You will be helping to supplement the revenue lost from our limited class sizes and helping to ensure that we can continue to provide scholarships and financial aid to those in need. The pandemic has helped to shine a spotlight on how vital the arts are to a healthy community, and how important The Baum School of Art is in fulfilling that need. Your support will be critical to the success of our community art school this year, and for that, we are so thankful. Please consider making a gift today. All gifts received before October 19th will be included in our Winter Session Brochure. Donate Today: https://register.communitypass.net//cat_program_class_deta

https://givergy.us/baumschoolflashsale/?controller=home Artful treasures lie in every crevice of The Baum School of Art. Each and every one of these deserves to be shown off in a home, or in someone's personal collection. These pieces are one-of-a-kind and are extremely affordable. Every Friday, The Baum School of Art will be adding new artworks to the site. Once a piece is gone - it truly is gone, so don't wait! Keep checking back each week to see what pieces we have available for you to call your own.
