MCS EXHIBITS
Next exhibit will be at
Indian Prairie Library in Darien in February
This exhibit will
feature altered books. Exhibit title is needed!
We will be able to
display assemblages from our workshop with Donna Castellanos in two of the library's display
cases, so finish your masterpieces! In keeping with the theme, create a hanging
piece using an old book or books. Joan Lucht has 17 old Time-Life books for
those who wish to have one. Depending on size we should be able to hang 30 to
40. Donna will be invited to display a piece along with ours. MCS had an
exhibit like this at the Downers Grove Library several years ago that was well
received. As an example, here is one of the pieces from that show:
Future exhibits needing an
exhibit title:
Downers Grove Library
- April
Bloomingdale Park
District Museum - June
Woodridge Library - December

New Interim Exhibit
CoChairs
Jocelyne Roy has found it necessary to resign her
position as Exhibit Chair due to her extremely busy schedule. A hearty
THANK YOU you to Jocelyne for having taken on the MCS Exhibit Chair and
providing continuity since Nancy Staszak's last term.
Adrienne Austin and Joan Lucht have volunteered to serve as interim Co Chairs for this
position until next year's election. Please offer your support as they continue
to establish additional exhibit opportunities for the MCS membership. We
all make art and these exhibits are an opportunity to display and offer it for
purchase. Whatever will we do with it all otherwise? They also
provide deadlines to complete projects, something many of us find necessary!
