A big thank you for sponsoring a show of my work by the Deerfield Beach Historical Society at the Old School House built in 1920.
My work filled the old school house teaching room. All the old chairs, maps, backboards and books are in tact safe in this little jewel case of a museum.
I work was all displayed on easels so as to not touch the walls. The show was billed as 3 generations of Shooster Art to connect it to the historical societies mission. Displayed was the art of Harry Shooster, my uncle (90) and my daughter Carly Shooster’s art (14) plus all my latest works.
The show was a joy, a connection to a few old friends that have not seen in years, and most importantly a way to bring my work to the public which has always been a dream.
My wife played a huge part in making this happen. Later that night we went dancing for the first time in so many years I cant wait to go again.
Recent Show - Deerfield Beach Historical Society will be hosting an event coming September 25th (7:30 PM - 10:00 PM and the 26th (10 am - 4 pm) 2009 at the Old School house near Deerfield Beach City Hall.
The school house is from 1920 complete with all the things that make it charming. Chalk Boards, Old desks, teachers desk with books, old maps, old posters, original text books, 1890 attendance record. This room gave my work a "full voice" as it filled the whole space.
