Dear Braggers,
When we support one another, we can accomplish just
about anything. Our classes, workshops,
exhibits, competitions, and camps-visual and performing arts-are our offerings
to you. How about choosing one or more
of the following in support of BRAG?
Sign up for a class or
workshop! Check the list of workshops and the mosaic
class on the website www.bragart.org, the
monthly newsletter, and the Facebook page.
We have great workshops listed, presented by talented artist instructors
in a wide variety of media—colored pencil, oil, acrylic, watercolor, and
mosaic.
Pay your dues on
time. For many, membership dues are due in the month of
May. Please try to pay your dues
promptly. Also, I challenge each member to recruit at least one new member for
BRAG. We can double our
membership. Remember, an individual
membership is only $30 a year, and you get a discounted rate on classes and
workshops, as well as, the BRAG newsletter.
Enroll your children or
grandchildren in Summer Art Camp. Carolyn Moseley,
director of the Summer Art Camp this year has planned five weeks of classes--6
to 7 classes each week. Along with
classes in visual arts, we now have Performing Arts Classes directed by Martha
Lynch. The camp just gets better each
year! All the classes are listed on the
BRAG website with a description and the instructor for each class. Registration has begun for children 4 years and
up. Call the office to sign up your
children and grandchildren. Register early,
because classes fill up fast.
Volunteer. If you have a few hours a week, volunteer to help as a receptionist by answering the phone,
signing up students for workshops and art camp, and greeting visitors. Desk helpers receive credit for time worked
that can be used toward class tuition, when classes make.
Donate.
Any donation made to BRAG is tax deductable. You can donate to the High School Scholarship
Fund to help young artist with college tuition.
Donate to the Juried Show and have an award named for a loved one. Give a donation to help support Summer Art
Camp. Donate to the general fund to help
with operating expenses. Any donation to
BRAG supports the arts community in our area.
I hope that, if you haven’t been to BRAG lately, you
will come by for a visit. We are open
Monday through Thursday from 9am till 4pm and on Friday from 10am till 2pm.
Sincerely,
Marilyn Ammons
President BRAG
