Surprise! Our February meeting will be an all-day
workday, from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. We would
like to expand our Exquisite Corpse exhibit, so if
you never completed the one you started last year,
bring it along to work on, or start another body
part. Pat Pope will have 12 x 12” canvases
available for purchase at the meeting. This would
also be a good time to work on your Alphabetica
project for the April exhibit, or you can always
bring another project to work on as well.
Remember to bring along a lunch or munchies to
share with the group.
And don’t forget to bring your 3 x 5” collages (up
to three per person) for the MCS Collage
Challenge. We’ll vote on all the submissions, and
the two collages that receive the most votes will
appear on the cover of our 2008 Directory-
Handbook and the 2008 Membership Card. The
winning artists will each receive a free year’s
membership.
