SUMMARY:Bethlehem Town Hall Rotunda Gallery\,  BFAC Invitational Exhibition\, “The Art of Pastel”
DESCRIPTION:The BFAC invitational exhibit “The Art of Pastel” will feature the work of Erin Pryor Gill\, Diane Horoschock\, Marianne Knipe\, and Jacqueline Meyerson\, at the Bethlehem Town Hall Rotunda Gallery from November 12 to December 22\, 2026.  There will be an opening reception on Sunday\, November 12 from 2:00 – 4:00 PM\, with an artist talk at 3:00 PM.  The Rotunda Gallery is located at 10 E. Church Street.  Gallery hours are Monday through Friday 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM. \nThis exhibition highlights four talented pastelists who bring a distinctive vision to their craft. Erin Pryor Gill is inspired by the surrounding landscape and historic architecture in her highly detailed renderings and impressionistic plein air work. Diane Horoschock applies bright vivid colors or bold contrasts of black and white with each individual work to create the illusion of an actual photograph. Marianne Knipe’s intimate pastel work vary in subject matter ranging from landscapes\, figures\, or portraiture\, yet always focus on nature while capturing a delicate balance of color and light. Jacqueline Meyerson is a self-taught photorealist artist/teacher whose exquisite still life work becomes hyper-realistic views of common everyday objects\, causing the viewer to question whether what they are seeing is drawn or captured. This exhibit celebrates these four remarkable female artists and the enduring media of pastels. \nEVENT CALENDAR:  \nBethlehem Town Hall Rotunda Gallery \n10 E.

SUMMARY:Artist Series #2: Crafting Your Artist Statement with Katie Arnold
DESCRIPTION:Writing about your own artwork can be challenging. Join local artist and educator Katie Arnold for a welcoming\, hands-on workshop designed to help artists find clear\, authentic language for talking about their work.\nTogether\, we’ll look at examples of artist statements and explore what makes them effective\, approachable\, and connected to the artwork. Through interactive activities\, conversation\, and guided writing prompts\, participants will identify the ideas\, questions\, materials\, and processes that shape their own work and begin developing language for an artist statement.\nWhether you’re writing your first statement or looking to refresh an existing one\, you’ll leave with practical strategies\, new language to work with\, and greater confidence in articulating your artistic practice.\nSpace is limited! Please register in advance.\nIf you require assistance filling out this form\, prefer to share your registration information via email or phone\, or have questions\, concerns\, or any accessibility needs\, please email Elise at ejs421@lehigh.edu or call 610-758-6882.\nThe Artist Series at Lehigh University Art Galleries is offered in partnership with HOMEBASE and Lehigh Valley Artist Meetup.\n \nSelf-Portrait of the Artist\n \nMore about Katie Arnold:\nKatie Arnold is an artist and educator at Lehigh Valley Charter High School for the Arts and the founder of Merritt House\, an artist residency and creative community in Easton\, Pennsylvania.\nIn her studio practice\, Katie uses pattern\, repetition\, layering\, and play to explore memory\, connection\, and the often unseen relationships between people\, objects\, and experiences. Her work moves between the personal and the universal\, using her own stories as a way to consider how our individual lives are connected to something larger.\nKatie is deeply invested in creative community and in the exchange that happens when artists learn alongside one another. She especially values the energy and inspiration she finds through her colleagues\, students\, and fellow artists.

SUMMARY:AudaTours Bethlehem Audio Tour: Moravian Echoes and Industrial Origins
DESCRIPTION:A secret network of tunnels once buzzed beneath Bethlehem’s quiet cobblestone streets\, where revolutionaries plotted by candlelight and radical thinkers rewrote history in silence. \nTrace these hidden threads on a self-guided audio tour that reveals the stories behind doors most people walk past. Find lost legends and overlooked corners without a guidebook or crowd. \nWho risked everything in the Colonial Industrial Quarter\, where the smell of molten iron once foreshadowed disaster? What forbidden rituals unfolded in the Single Sisters’ House after dark\, behind locked shutters? Why did a rare orchid spark obsession and rivalry at the Lewis David de Schweinitz Residence? \nMove through centuries in a single afternoon\, feeling every echo of ambition\, invention\, and intrigue beneath your feet. Let each landmark breathe its secrets back to life as the city transforms around you. \nPress play and plunge beneath the surface of Bethlehem’s most intriguing streets.
