thing we have to do is build our invitational email list.: We need each of our membership to make a list
of people to invite to our Art Shows, etc.
Each member will be
responsible to provide a list of 5 valid email addresses of people they know.
Along with each list, kindly submit a suggestion for a venue for a future art
exhibit.

~ If you
submit 10 email addresses we will give you a raffle ticket for a chance to win
a nice gift at our April 16 meeting.
