MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT
Some good news: The board has decided to waive dues for 2021. (If you have already paid, we will credit you for 2022).
Even though we’re moving forward with plans for exhibits, the likelihood of that happening is still in question. Until the pandemic is abated and venues open, we’ll move with caution and hope.
We’re looking for volunteers to chair one or more of our planned exhibits. Please contact me if you’re able to step up and assist. It’s really not that hard or time consuming; we have step by step instructions all set up to make it easy and I’ll hold your hand throughout.
Thank you all for continuing to keep our organization going strong.
Be well and safe. I hope you’re all creating amazing wonderful art.
Ken has also arranged with Bottle Works to provide us a dedicated space to hold meetings and store our documents. Bottle Works will also be our new location, replacing Ameriserv Bank exhibits.
