Friends of the Multi Arts Center Summer Meeting 1:00 PM July 30, 2016 To all FoMAC members, friends of members, and those who wish to be members, please come join us for the Annual Summer Meeting, July 30th at the MAC. In this meeting we’ll have copies of the new membership brochure, with the new pricing schedule and new member benefits. This is an exciting time! We’re getting ready to begin a big push to bring back former artists, teachers, and aficionados. We need your help to find new artists/teachers and expand our offerings. And we need your help to tell the public about the wonderful programs and facilities we have to offer! Now is the time when you can really help the MAC! What’s New: Helen Gragert has donated all her glass blowing equipment, including a very efficient electric furnace. We are planning artist reunions (potters, sculptors, weavers, etc.). Come help us plan. We are searching for a new Executive Director – volunteer for the Search Committee. We have openings on the Board. We desperately need committee members – Gallery, Publicity, Grants, etc. Come share your expertise and time. This meeting will be 1 hour ahead of a big Gallery event – CHRISTMAS IN JULY. Watch for the announcement. There will be new items in the Gallery, and all who attend will be first to view and purchase. Gallery Opening begins at 2:00! We need your help! There is lots of work to do.
