Beresford Booth is excited to share aspiring artist Eugenia Kvistad, daughter of attorney Michael Kvistad, will be sharing three of her paintings that were accepted in the upcoming exhibition "Teen Open Call" at The Gallery at Graphite Arts Center in downtown Edmonds. Do not miss this exhibition featuring incredibly talented young artists from our community!
"'Teen Open Call' is a non-theme specific art exhibit designed to give area teens a voice through creative expression. It celebrates the artistic abilities of teens (ages 13-19) in our community by showcasing youth art in a professional gallery setting at Graphite Arts Center for a 7-week exhibition." This open call provides teens with an opportunity to share their artwork with the public outside of the typical school environment. This is an exciting occasion for recognition...for teens pursuing a future in art, the open call can enhance college applications and improve scholarship opportunities.
Eugenia's creative journey has been guided by Tracey Fox of www.traceypaintedtoday.com, whose inspiring mentorship has been invaluable throughout the artistic process.
The exhibition will be open to the public October 10 – November 29, 2025, with viewing hours on Fridays and Saturdays from 12:00 p.m. – 5:00 p.m.
