  • September 2023 Monthly Members Meeting: Carole Pollard

    Artist-quilter Carole Pollard says, “Ideas excite me. Beauty inspires me. I wanted to be an artist from childhood, but made my living teaching English. I retired to get serious about making art, and I chose designing and making art quilts to express that intention. Several quilts have been inspired by literature. Many have deeply personal meaning, a psychological self-portrait. Archetypes* are all contained and interlinked within me and work together in dynamic and sometimes startling or even disturbing ways.” Join us on Monday evening, September 25th at the AI Root Community Room , as Carole shows the process of how--and why--she puts together these magnificent pieces of cloth and thought. *Archetypes are universal, inborn models of people, behaviors, and personalities that play a role in influencing human behavior. Swiss psychiatrist Carl Jung's theory suggested that these archetypes were archaic forms of innate human knowledge passed down from our ancestors. In Jungian psychology, these archetypes represent universal patterns and images that are part of the collective unconscious. Jung believed that we inherit these archetypes much in the way we inherit instinctive patterns of behavior.

  • Art Scholarships | MCAL Official

    Art Scholarships Each March the Medina County Art League presents scholarships to local high school students to further their education. In 2025, the MCAL was able to award $7500 to some deserving student artists. One of Medina County Art League’s goals is to provide educational opportunities for our members and for the community. We do so by hosting inexpensive and free to members workshops, but we really shine when it comes to giving out scholarships. These scholarships go out to Medina County graduating high school seniors who are furthering their education in an arts related field. Their work is always fabulous. See how all that hard earned scholarship fund is being spent. Because of the hard work of the scholarship committee and members and the generosity of our community, in 2025 the MCAL was able to raise the value of each scholarship by 25%! Donations Donations are accepted for our Scholarships funds year-round and also at our Scholarship tent at Art in the Park in June. Thank you for supporting these young artists in their artistic endeavors.
