Summer and all things exciting.  We are in our new gallery, thanks to John Ohare.  We have had several 1st Fridays and are still working the kinks out.  Each one is getting better and better.  We have a couple of new members joining the gallery committee, and they have some wonderful ideas and are volunteering their help, but we could use more.  Contact Will Rennick, Donna Pozehl, Janet Fraley or Jane Chesnut.  If you are a gallery member (you paid for that privilege) you are expected to do your part in maintaining the building and advertising it’s presence.  Tell your friends, bring your friends, bring an acquaintance, bring your non friends (just kidding).  The only way we can get people to know about us is to talk, talk, talk about our gallery and our organization.

Don’t forget about our First Friday event on June 1st.  We will display our regular art work, along with the start of our 3-D Show.  If anyone wants to help get ready for the show, we are meeting Thursday May 31st at 10:00 for a thorough cleaning and set up.  Bring along any cleaning supplies you like that might be useful.

We are also helping design a new sign that we can place in the window of the gallery.  Everyone is encouraged to bring several ideas to the June meeting, which in turn will be turned over to Steve Ohare, one of our resident graphic design members who will then work out the details.    Carmen
