Peggy Hawley, <strong>GFWC</strong> <strong>Georgia</strong> Arts<br />
Collaboration Chairman<br />
<strong>Georgia</strong> General and Junior Woman's <strong>Clubs</strong> had<br />
outstanding participation in all areas <strong>of</strong> the <strong>GFWC</strong><br />
<strong>Georgia</strong> and <strong>GFWC</strong> Arts Community Service<br />
Programs. Number <strong>of</strong> Art Collaboration Projects -<br />
844; number <strong>of</strong> members participating - 2267; with<br />
41,389 hours; $71,780 dollars donated and<br />
$45,621 in-kind donations.<br />
There were a number <strong>of</strong> wonderful projects.<br />
To inform their community, one club started blogs<br />
related to arts and club work. One member<br />
designed and installed two theater windows to<br />
advertise upcoming events. This was an effort to<br />
save live theater in there city. <strong>GFWC</strong> encourages<br />
members to further their own artistic<br />
expression. One club sponsored a photo<br />
scavenger hunt. Members were given two<br />
months to take pictures <strong>of</strong> items on their<br />
list. Additional points were given to items that<br />
included arts or club events. The winner <strong>of</strong> the<br />
hunt received a $25 gift card from Hobby Lobby.<br />
As Art Chairmen, we are looking forward to<br />
sharing ideas and ways to improve reporting at<br />
the State Institute, in Athens on August 20th.<br />

Ann Lundin, <strong>GFWC</strong> <strong>Georgia</strong> Arts<br />
Partnership Chairman<br />
<strong>GFWC</strong> <strong>Georgia</strong> clubs carried out projects<br />
involving the two Arts Partnership organizations.<br />
The VSA and AMP were supported by monetary<br />
and in-kind donations, information distribution to<br />
clubs and community and promoting activities<br />
both locally and nationally. One club carried out a<br />
very unique AMP project, involving collecting<br />
watches, creating a collage from them and<br />
displaying it at the local library with information<br />
about the achievements <strong>of</strong> the American Mural<br />
Project.<br />
Clubwomen throughout the state displayed their<br />
talents in the photography, writing and member<br />
crafts contests. It is time now to begin preparing<br />
for next year's competitions. Remember to take<br />
this summer when you go on vacation. That<br />
"perfect your camera along " picture may just be<br />
out there waiting for you!<br />
