Now that production of the Arts Digest is in full swing, it is time to
start pulling together for our next event; our second annual spring show
at the Bread Gallery in Brooklyn which will take place March 15th to April 28th.
Last year a dozen artists participated in our very successful
inaugural event, so it was no surprise when we started receiving letters
of interest from several members looking to take part this time around.
A big welcome to newcomers Naomi Slater and Sylvia Fullerton. Naomi
will be displaying examples of her photography and Sylvia will have a
selection of her painted, reclaimed furniture.
We are also very happy to
have Sandra Aucoin back with more of her remarkable pastel portraits
and Mary Lou Bennet with her gorgeous line of jewellery. We are hoping
to put together a very diverse show this year and we would love to have as many of our members participate as possible.
