September Meeting Recap

Hello Everyone,

Several people turned in their Summer pages that were due at the August meeting.  (If you haven't turned yours in and would like to participate, please bring your Spring and Summer page to Fall page's due date.)  The Fall page will be due at the November 8th meeting.

Lots of discussion concerning the show:

Nancy does need to have a final tally of all the people who will be in the show.  So if you have not done so, please email her and let her know. 

Drop off time for your work is Sunday, November 2nd, from 9am to Noon or Monday, November 3rd, from 9am to Noon, at the gallery.

Please make sure you include a price sheet (sample on earlier post) of all your work.  Also please don't forget to include notes on any special hanging instructions needed.  Since this is a book show, if there is a book you do not want people to touch, please put "please put under glass"  in the hanging instructions.

Each piece should be given a price.  If you do not wish to sell something, just put NFS (not for sale) in the price line.

Artists are responsible for their own sales.  So, in order to buy a book, the customer will need to contact you.  You will need to provide a contact information sheet with your work.  It is important to remember that the work needs to stay in the gallery until the show is over.

For our canvas piece, and any other hanging piece you may have, should have the eye screw and wire on the back.  No sawtooth holders or hooks, etc.

We are allowed to have up to 12 pieces in the show.  We would like everyone to contribute:  an ABC book, Box of Curiosity and 12"x 12" Canvas piece.

Nancy is checking on the Reception date for the show.  We thought it best to have it on Friday, November 14th, from 6 - 8pm.  The amount for the food is $20 per artist.  Nancy is collecting the money.

The show runs till the end of November.  The pick-up date for work is December 1, from 9am-Noon.

Other buisness:

If you haven't had any experience with installing eye screws and wires on the backs of canvases.  Feel free to bring your canvas to our next meeting and someone will help with it.  The canvas doesn't need to be finished.

Also once again for our next meeting, we will be showing work for the show.  So please bring anything that you would like to have last minute feedback on or questions about how to hang, etc.

Our next meeting is scheduled for October 11th.  It is the last meeting before our work is due, so it should be quite energetic.  

Time to get to work!
Sheila
