Next Meeting May 9th!

We will be making plans for our upcoming exhibition. So please bring ideas! Possible venues are the Plastic Club or Stratosphere, but other suggestions are welcome.

Bring Artist Trading Cards. We will be sending them to another WCA chapter and you will get one back for every card you trade.

Also information on The Irving Sandler Artists File image data base and slide directory will be discussed as well.

Here is more info on the DC chapter networking day which we will also discuss May 19th:

of success? With a robust work ethic in place does an
artist rocket to fame and fortune? Don't miss Aziza

your career and achieving success as an artist.

historic Arts Club, and spend time networking with
other participants.
