WAA March 11, 2014

Notes from Gretchen:

Hope our Spring weather will inspire a big turnout for our March 13th

Members Meeting at the Arboretum.  Kirah Van Sickle has planned our program featuring Tom Gilanyi who will discuss marketing options for

artists.

There  will  be  a volunteer sign-up sheet  for the Spring Show.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                
Erika Lawrence will have volunteer and entry forms for the Silver Arts Show.

Thanks to everyone  who entered their art in the  Spring Show!   Images were being uploaded until 11:45PM March 3rd, just before the 

midnight deadline! We had a total of  317 pieces of art entered from 156 artists.  Liz Hosier, Janet Sessoms and Gale Smith worked very hard 

to assist with online entries.  Thank you ladies!!!!

Sue Bark has kept us informed by "eblast" about the many upcoming opportunities for sharing your art.  You'll be hearing more about those 

events at our meeting!!


See you then!!
