a fantastic show it is, Special Thanks to Bucky
Halcome, Mary Tillotson,, Pete and Alice Greko,
Caroline Ampuero, Beverly Berger, Adeline Stevens,
Danny Alfano, Dottie Hutton, Renee Sands, Nelly
Molina, Art Markley for all your hard work. Without
them this event would not have happened.
We also Have a few members who have a show at
the Cooper City Library for the Month of March,
Carol Thaw, Alice Greko, Art Markley, Ann D’Angelo
and Teresa Kirk. Hopefully everyone can get by
to see that show and give them your support.
We all need to keep those Brushes moving as we
are having our first show next season in October.
You have plenty of time to do a couple just special
for this show.
Because of budget and staffing issues, the Center
where we hold our meetings, closes at 8:30 PM.
Because of these time constraints, we have to
sign in all entries for the Monthly members show
by 6:30. No entries after 6:30 can be accepted,
so please come early. Someone will be there ready
to take your entry at 6:15. The meeting will start
promptly at 6:30.
Thank you for your help and cooperation on this
matter. |
| You can help. |
| It is important
to us that our libraries have adequate display space
It appears that the new Hollywood library is being
built without display space. Voice your opinion
to Sam Morrison, Director of Libraries, thru his
