PAL Needs a New Treasurer....
We are sad to announce that our Treasurer, Alison Saunders, will be leaving us for the U.K. in August. Although she will still be a member and come and visit during holidays, she will no longer be able to take on the tasks of Treasurer. So we are asking you, our members, for your help. If you are willing to volunteer in this capacity, please let us know as we only have a month or so to fill this position. Please call or email us with any questions.
No June Member meeting/Demo:
Due to our recent loss of storefront & gallery space, we are still in the process of working with our new partners at Limestone Brewery to set the details of how and when to hold our first show within their business. Due to this, we have postponed both our June Demo/Member meeting and our next Member Exhibit until July. Our next Demo will be on July 13th from 7pm – 9pm. We will announce the date of our next Member Exhibit, "Wild Things," when the date has been finalized. Thank you for your patience during these transitions!
We do want to encourage you to bring in any of your own, original artwork you would like to exhibit, regardless of what the "theme" of the show may be. The themes are only intended as possible inspiration, not as a restriction of any kind...so please don't hesitate to show off your work!
