President's Message
Dear Members of Artists Equity,
Get your paints, your clay or other materials out and start creating a piece for the Fall 2018 show at Cheltenham Art Center. The AE Board has chosen a theme for the show. We are looking for new or recent work that relates to the notion of "CONNECTIONS".
Jurying will be on-site by well known juror, Thora Jacobson. Thora is a well respected art expert and worth googling! The show will run from September 23 to October 21. Please see the prospectus for details.
HELP US GROW
Growing membership numbers equates to a more robust organization, so we are asking each of you to ask another to join our group. Each one, ask one. As a beneficiary of our no-entry-fee exhibits at premier venues and our robust newsletter, we ask each of you to tell another artist or art lover about Artists Equity. I find so many area artists have never heard of us and would really appreciate the opportunity.
Lastly, thanks to all who helped make the show at Baker Gallery at West Chester University so successful. Hearty congratulations to all the winners and participants!
We are always looking for new ideas to help us as we grow.Please feel free to call me at 484-341-8014. Happy Summer!
~Mary
