Artist Update:G.E. Colpitts
G.E. Colpitts writes:
"Things have been absolutely crazy busy here and I was prepping for a one-person show out in Iowa (glazing ceramics like a madwoman and firing on a continual basis for about two weeks) which opened on October 29. The drawings I did have been very successful in competitive exhibition; several nationals and some regionals, and the big drawing just won second place a the Plaza Juried Regional Exhibition at the Beverly Arts Center in Chicago.
I hope all is well in Galesburg, I do encourage people to apply for residences. It was such a treat to spend 8 weeks with you having nothing to do but work in the Studio!"
G.E. is the Chair in the Department of Art and Design at Judson College in Elgin, Illinois. She was a Studios Midwest Artist in 2005.

Welcome to Studios Midwest
Studios Midwest is a visual arts residency program dedicated to the creative expression of the artists who participate. This residency takes place each summer for a period of eight weeks and is presented by the Galesburg Civic Art Center, a non-profit, community-funded organization, located in downtown Galesburg, Illinois. 2008 marks the residency program’s 23rd year.
In 1986 a small but enthusiastic group from within the arts community invited artists to Galesburg for the summer to create art. The program has since merged with the Galesburg Civic Art Center, increasing resources and becoming part of an over 80-year tradition of promoting the visual arts in Galesburg. This exceptional program fosters a sense of community between the participating artists and local residents. The Studios Midwest committee encourages artists of all media to apply.
