Maya Project @ Juniata College Museum of Art

March 6 – April 13, 2024

The Maya Project celebrates a rescue dog through the genre of pet portraiture. Maya is a rescue dog that, upon adoption as a puppy, had several potentially fatal health issues. To celebrate Maya’s good health on her first birthday, friends created portraits in their choice of media limited only by size to honor how tiny she was as a puppy. Over the last two years, the Maya Project has expanded to over three dozen contributions by artists that met Maya in person or through social media. Watch for community-oriented programming and participate!

Art Walk Huntingdon will be Thursday, April 18th! Be sure to look for our mascot, Artie Walker. If you take a selfie with Artie and post it on Facebook, Instagram or X (Twitter) with the hashtags: #IFoundArtie and #ArtWalkHdon, you could win a prize from Artie’s basket at the next Art Walk!

Please join us to welcome the fishing season and make some fashion earrings to celebrate. Guiding us will be Andy Socie and his wife LeAnn. The crafting duo of “Two Swans Creations”. Andy and LeAnn craft mainly for the enjoyment and the fun of creating. Most of their creations are a result of their two minds coming together to share ideas and join efforts. Andy enjoys using deer antlers and nature items. LeAnn is a little more crafty, yet artistic. For this month’s Art Walk they have chosen their popular “Man Allure “ earrings. Earrings made with fishing tackle. They are easy and fun to create, and are always enjoyed by those who see them. Come and join them for a demo. The earrings are a nice accessory for personal expression and a great gift idea. They will supply all tools and supplies necessary to create this unique fashion statement! “Lure Your Man with Man Allure Earrings” This will take place at the Huntingdon Area High School auditorium lobby.

The Huntingdon County Library will have their All Artists Welcome group led art activity from 5-6pm. They will provide a space and kits that you can either do at the library or take with you from 6-7pm.
