Please keep an eye on my emails for the next few weeks for important info about the show.  I went to the Harborwalk Apartments to look over the lobby space. This is the swankiest venue we’ve ever had. Lots of space for the show and auction, and places for food and sitting, and an outdoor picnic area where the kids can run around. There’s security there, and they’ll give us a special pass code for the show.

My liaison there said that they need art for the mailbox space in the new building, and might buy some of the works. So if any kids want to put a price on their work, they might just sell it!
It’s time for me to gather the info about the one or two paintings each student will be exhibiting so I’ll have time to create the program – note timeline below. So please send me the info ASAP.  

The t-shirts are awesome, and I’ll hand them out this week and next with the postcards, and encourage all of the exhibitors wear theirs to the opening.

This week we’ll start the  auction paintings. I hope we’ll raise lots of dough for World Central Kitchen.
