Mark your calendars!  The 2019 LAG show dates are as follows:

April 4 – hanging the ANAC pre-qualifying show (Thursday) (at LUX)

Seward Fourth of July show (months of June and July)

Many changes for this years shows.  The cost to enter the shows will be $10 for each piece, (or 3 pieces for $25),  Yes you may enter up to 3 pieces, 2-dimensional or 3-dimensional.  The reason for the increase is that we have not been breaking even after paying for a judge, ribbons and monetary payments to winners.  We are not out to make money, but we do need to cover our costs.

The location for our shows is changing also.  We will have our shows at the LUX Center for the Arts located at 2601 N. 48th Street in Lincoln.  We will have a large beautiful gallery upstairs (there is an elevator) that does not cost us anything.  We will be able to participate in their first Friday events complete with food and drinks.  The reasons are two-fold.  We should have more traffic as we are dovetailing along with their gallery shows, and we will not have to disturb our gallery pieces by removing, rehanging, etc.  The shows will still hang for approximately a month as before.

More information will follow about the time to bring work in but it is important to:

Send your registration forms (found at the bottom of your newsletter) to Ethel at least a week in advance of the hanging.  This facilitates getting tags ready prior to hanging day.
