Lehigh Valley Arts Podcast

This week, we talk with Rachel Peri. Rachel Peri is a lifestyle and portrait photographer as well as jewelry maker who operates out of the Lehigh Valley. In addition to being an artist, she is the current acting president of ACE, also known as the Arts Community of Easton. ACE was founded in 1999 and incorporated in April 2000 by artists, business owners, art institution representatives, and art lovers, seeking an organization for arts education programs, exhibitions, workshops, information dispersal, and networking. Given its proximity to large cities, Easton has been a magnet for artists who are looking for a place to work and live. Since the 1980’s, many artists have joined with long time artists in making Easton their home. ACE’s mission is to encourage and promote all the arts; foster an appreciation of the arts; and enrich the quality of life by offering arts involvement, education, and community programming to the Easton area.

For our opportunity of the week, we wanted to share some information about how you can get involved with ACE - The Artists Community of Easton!

Monthly meetings are held by ACE as an opportunity for members to learn about the organization, upcoming events, and the work being done by the committees. There’s also an open forum for all members to share their thoughts and announce their own exhibitions that are done outside of ACE. Frequently, guest speakers are invited to discuss various topics of interest to the arts community.

Artists of all mediums are welcome, as is anyone who would like to support the arts. ACE Monthly Meetings are open to the public. You do not need to be an ACE member to attend.

ACE is a membership-driven organization, and there are numerous ways to contribute to and benefit from participation. As an ACE member, you will receive multiple opportunities to exhibit artwork, receive discounts, and more. Become an active ACE member and help lift and encourage our community through the power of the arts.
ACE offers individual, family, and student memberships that offer benefits such as participation in meetings and events, marketing and networking resources, special exhibition opportunities and announcements, and more!
