New Year Celebration Prospectus

The theme for the New Year Celebration Exhibition is the New Year and is the opportunity for each artist to share their inspiration for the year. Perhaps that inspiration is the opportunity for resolutions, new beginnings, or simply the imminent arrival of Valentine's Day and shared moments. Anything that celebrates the promise of a New Year, being good to ourselves and those we love, and helps to raise spirits after the long winter is welcome.

The Exhibition opens Thursday, February 6 with a reception at the Guild House. Join us at 6:30 pm for a warm evening with good company, music, and lovely art.
The Exhibition runs through Thursday, March 6, 2025.

Painting Group

We were so sorry to have to delay the painting group last week. Hopefully you will be able to stop by on Wednesday, January 29th between 2 pm to 4 pm. We will be in the big room down the hallway. If you can't come, that's fine, we'll plan to do this weekly on Wednesday afternoons and see how that schedule works for everyone.

By the way, if you haven’t heard about the painting group, it is very informal at this point, formed as the initial response to requests for an opportunity for artists to work on our own projects, to share ideas and ask questions of each other more informally than in a class setting. There is no sign up needed and no charge. Just stop by and bring a project to work on. If you haven’t got something you can bring, we may be able help. We’d love to see you!

Upcoming Quarterly Meetings

Mark your calendars now and plan to attend the upcoming Quarterly Members Meetings in 2025. These regular meetings are scheduled for the 3rd Thursday of the ending month each quarter: March 20, June 19, September 18, and December 18, 2025. They are a great way to learn what is happening at the Art Guild, what is planned, and to share your ideas!

A special Thank You for the volunteers who helped decorate for the holidays - and who help take them down! Thank you!
