STOCKBRIDGE, Mass. - “The Bar at Harbor Lights” by pastel artist and IS183 faculty member June Parker of Egremont has been accepted for inclusion in two nationally acclaimed art exhibitions this spring.

Parker’s painting was one of the 120 works selected from over 500 entries by the Juror of Selection, Albert Handell for the 74th Annual National Exhibition of the Cooperstown Art Association to be held in July and August. In May of this year, the work was exhibited at The Academic Art Association’s 59th National Exhibit of Contemporary Realism held at the Karen Sprague Cultural Arts Center at The American International College in Springfield.

June has been a faculty artist at IS183 Art School in Stockbridge for the past seven years. This summer “Exploring the Landscape with Pastel: Inside and Out”, will be held on Wednesdays, from July 15 to August 19 from 9:30 to 12:30. The class includes June’s three step process on how to approach a pastel painting. This six week course still has space available and is open to students of all abilities and skill levels.

This summer IS183 Art School offers week-long Art Camps for children ages 5 through 14 in addition to classes and weekend workshops for adults. Space is still available in courses with instruction in ceramics, fiber arts, painting, drawing, and more.

IS183 Art School is a non-profit community art school encouraging people of all ages, means and skill levels to enrich their lives through hands-on experience in the visual arts. Located half-way between Great Barrington and Pittsfield in the Interlaken village of Stockbridge, IS183 Art School offers year-round programs in ceramics, painting, drawing, fiber arts, sculpture, mixed media and more for children, teens and adults. 

IS183 also offers week-end workshops for adults; Young Artist programs during school vacations and in the summer; birthday parties; custom classes and private lessons. Classes are held during the daytime, evenings and weekends, for all levels from the absolute beginner to professional artist.
