Another year is drawing swiftly to a close and here
are the highlights of our recent activities.
The Ingathering that the SBAA managed for the S.B.
Public Library’s Faulkner Small Galleries went ex-
tremely well. We had 53 applicants to fill 22 open-
ings and 13 SBAA members were awarded shows:
Frances Reighley, Emil “Aim” Morhardt, Thore
Edgren, Jane Hurd, Brenda Geneau, Bay Hallow-
ell, Karen Schroeder, Ron Kok, Tomi Murphy,
Kristine Kelly, Jamee Aubrey, Ellen Yeomans,
and me. The shows are scheduled through May of
2018 and congratulations to all the artists, members,
and non-members, who made the cut.
Saturday, November 5th was the change out of the
show at 1919 State Street. Everyone picked up their
work on time (as they did at the JCC!) so, congratu-
lations all round. We had a very nice turnout with
54 entries and the juror, Scott Anderson, selected 38
pieces to hang. Juror’s Choice went to Jana Jul-
ian, Award went to Jerilynne Nibbe and Honora-
ble Mention went to Virginia Kamhi. Thanks to
everyone for their participation.
We’re hoping for a big turnout for our Holiday
Show ingathering at the Faulkner on Wednesday,
November 30th from 10-12:30. Each member can
submit 2 pieces for $10 each but they must be priced
at $300 or less (or NFS but why bother if you’re not
after a sale). This is SBAA’s way of offering origi-
nal artwork to the community at affordable prices for
holiday gifts. In addition, each 2016 New Member
may bring a piece for the side galleries to hang at no
charge – any size or price (or NFS). Since these are
non-juried shows, all pieces will be accepted as long
as they meet our hanging standards. At the ingather-
ing, there will be sign-up sheets for Faulkner Sitting
as well volunteering to help serve refreshments –
working the reception is a great way to meet other
members and guests and get into the Holiday Spirit!
Thank you to members who submitted photos of
their artwork for the Holiday Show postcard. Nancy
Horwick’s was selected. Some of the others appear
in this issue and the remaining will be in the January
issue.
I wish you all very Happy Holidays and
a New Year of Peace and Promise!
