Artists From Atlanta
An artist is a person engaged in an activity related to creating art, practicing the arts, or demonstrating an art. The common usage in both everyday speech and academic discourse refers to a practitioner in the visual arts only. However, the term is also often used in the entertainment business, especially in a business context, for musicians and other performers (although less often for actors). "Artiste" (French for artist) is a variant used in English in this context, but this use has become rare. Use of the term "artist" to describe writers is valid, but less common, and mostly restricted to contexts like used in criticism. Dictionary definitions The ''Oxford English Dictionary'' defines the older broad meanings of the term "artist": * A learned person or Master of Arts. * One who pursues a practical science, traditionally medicine, astrology, alchemy, chemistry. * A follower of a pursuit in which skill comes by study or practice. * A follower of a manual art, such as a m ...

Noyes Museum
The Noyes Museum of Art is an art museum. It styles itself as the only fine arts museum in southern New Jersey. The museum opened in 1983 in Galloway Township, New Jersey. Due to lack of funds for needed repairs, the main Galloway building in Oceanville was closed to the public in 2016. The Oceanville property was eventually sold in 2021. The museum has since moved into four other affiliated sites where its collection is displayed: the Noyes Art Garage in Atlantic City, Kramer Hall in Hammonton, the Noyes Gallery at The Claridge Hotel in Atlantic City, and the Seaview golf club in Galloway. Since 2017, the museum is fully a part of Stockton University, a partnership which began in 2010 and expanded in 2016. History The Noyes Museum of Art was created largely due to the philanthropic efforts of Fred and Ethel Noyes. Fred Noyes helped create and promote the " Historic Towne of Smithville" tourist and activity site, and was the owner of the Smithville Inn restaurant. ...

The Society had lectures, published prints, and coordinated traveling shows. In "The Complete Printmaker: Techniques, Traditions, Innovations", the authors wrote that this organization, by 1940, had an active program of "traveling exhibits, lectures, and portfolios of prints (that) helped to sustain and broaden interest in the serigraph.
