Lincoln Artist’s Guild

Monthly Meeting

September 12, 2023

The president, Carmen Stineman, opened the meeting at 7:00 pm with 15 members attending. A sign-up sheet is located in the back of the room for members to sign up to help on committees.

We will not be showing at the LUX after this year and will therefor need to find a new location to hang our shows.

In anticipation of our move to another location for our monthly meetings, Carmen contacted the Capital City Church located at 7800 Holdrege Street. Good news is that they are agreeable for us to hold our meetings there along with possibly hanging some of the art pieces of members.

Carmen also suggested that members show artwork at the State Fair in Grand Island and do this as a group.

The Seward Fourth of July show was very successful with Pam Apley as chairperson. Susan Harris was awarded first place for her painting.

Reida Wrenholt suggested a change for the New Year’s party in January. It was agreed that she and Wanda Medina will be considering changing from the traditional Chinese New Years Party to a new choice of food and venue for the New Year’s party.

Many art pieces were critiqued by members writing their critique on individual papers located by the artwork. The comments were then read by Carmen and Kirk Kuenzi. A successful evening with lots of suggestions given.

Cookies provided by Gretchen Olberding were appreciated by all.

Sincerely,

Donna Justsen
