Dear Members:
Happy Fall y'all! If you have not checked out the new website at treasureislandartguild.org please do. We will be changing up the schedule a little this year and some of our meetings will be held at different times and venues. The calendar (under the "what's new" tab) should have all the updated information so no one misses anything.
October Meetings
Next month's intake/exchange will be held on Thursday, October 5th between 10:45 and 12pm followed by our board meeting in the Garden Room. Members are always welcome to attend the board meetings. Our member's meeting and reception this month will be held on Saturday, October 14th at 12 pm. Please bring a snack or dish to share on this date if you can. The theme this month is CHARTREUSE and we hope to see a lot of entries with this lovely shade of green but it is not required. You may enter up to 3 pieces.
September Winner
The winner of September's People's Choice show was Bruce Kotchey and his painting "Airborne". Congratulations!
Logo Contest
The deadline for this contest is Monday, October 9th. Please submit them to tiartguildinfo@gmail.com We are looking more for an art piece that will represent the guild rather than a graphic logo. I am sorry if that was not made clear earlier. That said, I am hoping to see a lot more entries in the next week. See the homepage of our website for a good example.
Classes and Workshops
We will be having our first Still Life Workshop on Wednesday October 4th in the Garden Room at 9:30. The cost is $7/members $10/nonmembers
Rolando Rodriguez will be starting his Painting From Pictures classes on Thursday, October 5th at 9:30 in the Garden Room. $20/members $22/non-members
The Portrait workshop continues Fridays at 9:15am. $10/members $13/non-members. Unfortunately, the board needed to increase prices this year to help maintain our organization. Please try and participate in a workshop or class if you are available. Bring a friend!
Dear Members:
Hope everyone is having a happy, healthy Summer and ready to start back up in September. We are trying a few new things this year starting with our website! It is set to be up and running by August 25 so be sure and check it out for important dates and other information. We will be having a few different venues for our shows in some of the coming months as well as opportunities to participate in additional shows. See it all on the calendar at treasureislandartguild.org
Logo Contest
We need a new look for our new website and corresponding social media accounts. Most likely a well executed painting but we are open to drawings and digital art too. Will you be the one to create it? We are accepting submissions from now until October 9th and the winner will be announced at our October 15th meeting at which time full bragging rights will be awarded. Please submit a jpeg or pdf file of your work to tiartguildinfo@gmail.com

Our first painting intake/exchange will be September 14th and our first members meeting will be September 23rd at the Treasure Island Community Center.

The show will run for the month of September and the reception date and time is to be announced.
