2019 CLA Show: Photos

New & Aspiring Artist

of the CLA - 2019

Last year (2018) was the first year a table at the Contemporary Longrifle Association (CLA) show in Lexington, KY was available and used exclusively to promote new artists of the CLA.  We ended up promoting 10 relatively new artist and displayed at the table a representative piece of their work that best reflects their talents.  The reception to  this idea was overwhelmingly positive, so we will do the same thing this year, adding a 2nd table to use for artists to display and possibly sell pieces of their work while at the show.

More information can be found here.

These artist also were supplied a table in which to sell their items.

For questions about this program send an e-mail to Paul Fennewald at pfennewald@gmail.com

When Generosity and Goodness Steps Up

When Frank and Lally House heard about fellow CLA member Glen Mock’s life threatening fight with cancer, they took a week out of their normal work schedule for the CLA show to make a marvelous dagger and quilled knife sheath to help raise money for Glen and Connie. This work of art will be given away at the upcoming CLA show on the 15th of August. This is not a raffle per se, but rather; make a donation, any amount you feel you can spare and you get one ticket.  The drawing will be held at 11am on Saturday. You can register at Frank and Lally’s table at the show.

For those who can’t make it to the CLA show but would still like to contribute; make a donation and be in the drawing for Frank and Lally’s dag and sheath set, make your check to Glen Mock but mail to Lally House, Box 43, Woodbury, KY 42288.  Be sure to include your contact information and Lally will make out a card for you to be in the drawing. Your donation must be received by August 11 to be included in the drawing.

This example of generosity by Frank and Lally says what we are all about. Friends helping friends. 

Thanks from all of us.
