The first of our monthly art251 art seminars is set for later today, November 11. The Heritage Homeowners Association (HOA) in Keller has graciously opened the doors of its clubhouse to your friendly art251 owners for some serious debunking.

This evening’s topic is entitled “Mythbusters — Art Buying 101″, where we’ll be tackling some common myths and misconceptions about art and buying art, such as “Art is expensive”, and “Buying Requires a Vast Knowledge of Art”.

I haven’t done much research to learn whether many other art galleries do this type of community outreach. I suspect a few do and many don’t. So, while we’re not necessarily blazing a new trail, we’re doing our small part to bring art in all its glory to (more of) the suburbs.

Our seminar series spans five presentations, each one hour long. We’re not high on formality, and we do like audience participation. So this should be fun. Oh, and did I mention we bring lots of great art with us and we do it for free! So, if you’re not part of the Heritage HOA, and would like us to venture to your community give us a call at 817.898.1444 or contact us online by clicking here.
