Airport art in Hot Springs

The public is invited to an art exhibit opening reception from 1 to 3 p.m. on Saturday, October 20 at Hot Springs Memorial Field, 525 Airport Road.  This month’s exhibit features Traditional Art Guild member Hildegard Honold. This show will be on display until November 13.

Honold, a native of Germany, immigrated to the United States in 1965 and soon thereafter became a citizen. After living in Chicago for 33 years, she moved to Hot Springs in 1998.

She discovered her love for painting in 2006. She works in pastels, oil and watercolor. Subjects include portraits, landscapes and various scenes from her extensive travels.

She has had her works exhibited at the Garland County Library, Hot Springs Municipal Airport, National Park Community College, Saline County Memorial Hospital, Malvern National Bank, the Fine Arts Center and the Mountain Valley Water Company. Honold has won several awards, and has her paintings and commissioned works in private collections.

The third Saturday of every month throughout the year, the airport will host a new art exhibit by a TAG member, beginning with an opening reception. For information on TAG membership, contact Traditional Art Guild President Joanne Kunath at 262-2953.
