Hey everybody! I'm going to combine a few subjects in this message to cut down on the number of emails in your inbox and I'm going to keep it brief and to the point (mostly). Here goes: 1) We are gearing up for November's ART BUS tour. If you want to add your art exhibit to the tour or buy your ticket to ride please let me know right away. My contact information is at the bottom of this email. For more information about ART BUS, visit our page on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Tacoma-WA/Tacoma-ART-BUS/151270941559625 2) The deadline is approaching for submitting your application to submit a door for this year's ART DOORS AUCTION. This is a benefit for not one but TWO arts organizations: Speakeasy Arts Cooperative and Tacoma Art Place. The application deadline is November 18th. We'd like you to deliver your door to Speakeasy on Nov. 28th. They will remain on display for a week and then we'll have the auction on Thursday December 2nd. For more details, see the event page on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=161981683811881 To download your application, go to our website: http://www.speakeasyartscooperative.com/ART-DOOR-ENTRY-FORM.doc 3) At the beginning of this month Speakeasy Arts Cooperative turned one year old. To commemorate this we've been doing some soul searching and we've decided to take this whole art gallery thing a little more seriously. If you'd like to be a part of our mission please let us know. Now is a great time to have input on the future direction of this endeavor. Remember when we started this, we said it was an experiment? Well, we've had our ups and downs and we've learned a lot since then but we still have room to grow, after all, we're only one! We are currently recruiting new members at Speakeasy Arts Cooperative and we'd like to see if your work and your attitude are a good match for our mission.
