November 2017 Newsletter

Hi Ladies,

        Here we are into November and we had a wonderful seminar last week with Judy Diephouse.  I know I really enjoyed it, especially since I was able to finish both pieces.  I am looking forward to painting with Cheri Ringer doing the Santa and child on a tree plate.  Be sure and have all the basing done and Cheri feels that we could finish that piece as well.

        Remember to sign up for the Christmas luncheon which will be at the Lion House for the last year.  Cost is $25.00.  As soon as we feel everyone is signed up we are going to do a drawing for those attending.  Please bring a $10.00 gift for the person you get with an attached note about something positive about that person.  I think we all need positive feedback.  I know I am looking forward to it.

         We will be voting on our next year officers at the November meeting so please be there.  I would love to have everyone participate in running the Guild and helping to make it as great as can be.

                Also, this year I have signed up the Guild to participate in the Holiday Boutique at the Holladay City Building the Monday through Wednesday after Thanksgiving.  All proceeds will be given to the Huntsman Cancer Center to buy art supplies for the children battling cancer.  I am hoping everyone will participate in contributing at least one item for that sale.  Please bring the pieces you have to our November meeting with a price on it.  I will then get the tags ready for the boutique.  We really don’t need to man the booth.  I am close enough that I will check on it and do what needs to be done.  I think this will be a great time to let people in the area know about our art form.  We might even get interest in some learning from us.  Sure hope everyone will participate.

                Thank you for all you do to make our chapter great.

                                                Judy

The event will be held November 27, 28, and 29.  

Please have any pieces you would like to donate to sell with a suggested price on them turned in by the November meeting.  You want to make sure you donate quality pieces and not junky old pieces you want to get rid of.  The money we make will be donated to the Huntsman Cancer Institute for art supplies for the kids.
