Drawing from a series of Salons coordinated by Pro Arts Jersey City, Salon 2018
presents the culmination of a series of meetings by groups of artists over a nine-
month period. Seeking to inspire community, encourage cross-disciplinary
learning and deliver an opportunity for professional artistic development, Pro
Arts gave each group the freedom to present their collective vision for this show.
With 27 participating artists divided into 4 salon groups (determined by zip code
rather than medium), groups worked collaboratively, consulting with a Curatorial
Advisor twice throughout the collaboration period to engage in conversations
about development of their work.

 

We will be hosting a professional development event at the gallery during the
month of September. Details to be announced shortly.
The Watchung Arts Council is a nonprofit, volunteer-run Center excels in
cultivating an eclectic mix of professional and emerging artists in the performing
and visual arts. Quality works in fine arts, exciting music, and comedy events are
presented to enthusiastic audiences. WAC encourages active membership,
community involvement, and inspirational discussions that only a
multidisciplinary arts organization can achieve.
Pro Arts Jersey City is a professional membership artist community that is
dedicated to the advancement and promotion of visual artists and their work.
The exhibition is free and open to the public. Gallery Hours- Tue-Fri: noon – 5
p.m., Saturday: 10 – 3 p.m. Sunday & Monday: closed.
