Sorry I haven't been around lately

I have been really busy lately and haven't taken the time to post.  We finally are making progress with the Wagoner Arts Alliance, the Main Street organization (Wagoner Switch District) has leased a building in Downtown Wagoner on Main street and has agreed to let the Art Guild use the majority of the building at no cost !  We will need to do some labor to get it up and ready but it looks like there is enough space to divide the area into a gallery space in the front and office space in the middle for both organizations and then to have classroom space in the back area.

I am finished with the craft fairs for this year and will be working on new pieces over the winter, along with working on getting my studio space up and running. 

The Arts Alliance is planning to hold open studio days, gallery showings and classes in the new year.

Wish us luck on all our activities

Art Guild in progress

We have an Art Guild in Wagoner now, we are called Wagoner Arts Alliance and I have created a Facebook page for the group, I have someone (my sister the graphic artist) who is going to create a banner / logo for us.

We have several of our artists who will be participating in an upcoming Arts / Crafts event:
