From Our Board President…<br />
SPRING 2012<br />
t’s spring! A time of new growth on the planet and so it is with<br />
I the <strong>Art</strong> <strong>Center</strong>. We are delighted that Lindsay Shields has agreed<br />
to join our staff permanently and is our new Executive Director.<br />
With her leadership, the Zacha Legacy Society has come into being<br />
and in the summer we will be honoring our first inductees. A grantseeking<br />
program started by Lindsay during her consultancy with us is<br />
moving forward. Most recently we received a $1,000 grant from the<br />
Rotary Club of <strong>Mendocino</strong> for a new computer for the gallery. We<br />
are very grateful for the continued support of our local businesses<br />
and Rotarians.<br />
The most exciting news in the education department is that this<br />
summer we will be offering five classes for academic credit through<br />
Woodbury University in Southern California. Each class is comprised<br />
of two workshops. Accreditation is provided by NASAD (National<br />
Association of Schools of <strong>Art</strong> and Design) and WASC (Western<br />
Association of Schools and Colleges). These ten workshops will<br />
still be available as stand-alone offerings to those who do not desire<br />
credit. An additional cost will be added to the class fee for those<br />
attending for credit. More information regarding these classes is<br />
available in our summer catalog and on both the <strong>Art</strong> <strong>Center</strong> Web site<br />
(www.mendocinoartcenter.org) and the Woodbury University Web<br />
site (www.woodbury.edu).<br />
If you plan to be in <strong>Mendocino</strong> for Memorial Day weekend come<br />
to the “Taste of Chocolate, Wine and Ale” event. The <strong>Art</strong> <strong>Center</strong> is<br />
partnering with the <strong>Mendocino</strong> Music Festival to bring to town<br />
purveyors of the best wines, chocolate, ales and artisanal foods for<br />
your tasting pleasure. You can’t miss us – we’ll be in the Festival tent<br />
on the front lawn of the <strong>Art</strong> <strong>Center</strong>. Visit our Web site for updates<br />
on this and other new events.<br />
I hope you will join us for what promises to be a very exciting<br />
year of new class offerings and events.<br />
