Month: March 2025

Join us for my Happy Spring “Flowers & Art” Talk!

March 4, 2025 by Beverly

Spring fever is in the air! Every year colorful blossoms slowly emerge, bringing us happiness and joy.

This year I’m excited to be welcoming spring with a talk on flowers and art. This upbeat subject will inspire and uplift us all.

You are invited!

The Scarsdale Public Library graciously invited me to return to present Creativity in Bloom: Flowers and Art on Tuesday, March 25 at 4:30pm. The event will last an hour – 45 minute talk plus questions, followed by refreshments.

The flowers topic is a bit of a change from my previous food presentation at the library called A Bite-Size Talk of Food in Art, which was well received, and included an exhibit of my food paintings. Edward Patrick Grigg will be exhibiting travel related pieces at the library during the month of March.

Registration Requested

Click here to register to come In-Person or attend Online. It’s especially important to register in advance if you’re attending virtually to receive the zoom link an hour before the presentation begins. And it will begin on time. Registration closes 3:00pm on Tuesday, March 25.

Bring a bit of an appetite since Bonnie, my younger daughter, is serving light refreshments. A rough head count will help her plan quantities of “bites” and drinks.

And how could we not serve food? It’s a long standing tradition at any Shipko event.

Transportation

The Scarsdale Public Library is located at 54 Olmsted Road, in Scarsdale, NY right off Boston Post Road in Southern Westchester Country. For those who plan to drive, parking is plentiful in the library lot and on the nearby side streets. Because of the positive response to this talk, and other simultaneous library events, parking could be more challenging than usual. Please allow extra to park.

For non-drivers from NYC, the Scarsdale train station is on the Metro-North Railroad’s Harlem Line from Grand Central Station. The station is fairly close (1.6 miles or 5 minutes) and easily accessible by taxi, Lyft or Uber.

Questions?

Finally, for additional information, please go to the website at scarsdalelibrary.org or call (914) 722-1302. You can always contact me directly at beverlyshipko@mac.com or 914-954-7779.

Now the question for me is how is to organize and condense a massive amount of material on this epic topic. I hope you’ll let me know how I did afterwards…

As always, I am looking forward to seeing you on March 25, and ushering in the delightful world of flowers!

This is a website about art, food and life - with dash of art history.

In my blog, I focus on the process of making art in general and creating dessert paintings specifically, while sharing my ongoing quest for new bites of life.
