By now you have most likely received information
from the Guild about the Board’ proposed changes and
updates of our by-laws. I hope that you will have a chance to
look over the proposals. Please feel welcome to come to the
March 13th Board meeting, when we plan to discuss and adopt
changes. You’re always welcome at Board meetings, which are
held in the Olive Hyde Art Center Mission Room at 10 a.m. on
the second Wednesday of each month, except in July and
December.
As I write this, I’m looking forward to seeing the
Women’s Figurative Art show at the Art Gallery on Feb. 15th.
I’ve just seen information about each of the artists in the
show and I’m truly intrigued to see their creations. If you are
not able to see this show, remember that Jurek Zarzycki,
the Guild’s historian, always does a wonderful job of
photographing each exhibit and putting photos on the Guild’s
website for all of us to enjoy.
