BLOCK OF ART

BLOCK OF ART The Block of Art is an annual free art show in downtown Pottsville, PA, plus smaller events all year.

The Block of Art is a weekend long annual free art show set in downtown Pottsville, PA held to help promote the arts in and around Schuylkill County. When the pandemic cancelled our big event in 2020 and 2021, we switched to doing a lot of small "blocks of art" with kids, seniors, and other organizations.

Join Patricia Falco on Thursday night at the reception for her new show. It's called Wanderlust in Focus and features over 40 pieces printed on canvas, metal, wood, acrylic, and archival paper. Come to see some cool art (makes a great Mother's Day present 😉), enjoy some conversation, great munchies, and drinks. Bring some friends too!

The Block of Art committee hosted the last summer program at the Pottsville Free Public Library. We used a blank paint base (that was made from ingredients in your kitchen), let them use food coloring to create their own colors; they painted the blocks then pressed the blocks on cardstock to create their art. And while there were plenty of adults on hand, the kids figured out most of it on their own!
