“AUTUMN GLORY AT PHILLIPS’ MILL”: The Phillips’ Mill Art Exhibition, a juried art show in the Delaware Valley since 1929, has announced that Princeton artist Charles McVicker has been chosen as this year’s featured artist for the show. This painting by fellow artist John C. Mertz is among the impressive artworks in the exhibition that runs from September 24 to October 29 in New Hope, Pa.

Charles McVicker, a Princeton watercolor, oil, and acrylic painter, has been chosen as this year’s honored artist. Each year for the past few decades, the art committee of Phillips’ Mill Community Association has chosen to honor a living artist whose work has been accepted into the show over a substantial number of years. McVicker’s work has been accepted into the Phillips’ Mill Exhibition numerous times and received five awards, including the Patrons and Watercolor Award.

The exhibition is open to artists living within a 25-mile radius of Phillips’ Mill. The exhibition’s prospectus has been posted on the organization’s website, www.phillipsmill.org and details all the requirements for entering the show. It may be downloaded for printing.

The 87th annual Phillips’ Mill Art Exhibition is open daily from 1 to 5 p.m. starting on September 24 and continuing through October 29. Phillips’ Mill is located at 2619 River Road, New Hope, about two miles north of the New Hope/Lambertville Bridge.
