Dear (Contact First Name),

For the first time since the beginning, there will be a TAC All-Member Meeting on August 10, 2015. See Workshops, below, for more details.   

The selections have been made for the 10th Annual TAC Juried Membership Exhibit. Notifications were made by email, so check your inbox. If you were accepted, will you PLEASE let me know you got your notification. If you did NOT RECEIVE a notification one way or another, let me know, also. A list of accepted artists is posted on the FWCAC website. 
 
Remember to get your entry in for the Art in the Metroplex Exhibit, and see Local Opportunities, below, for more exhibit possibilities!

See Workshops, below, for more information and to sign up.

I would like to remind you that when I get requests for artists or some exhibit opportunity, I rely on either your TAC Members' exhibit entry or your TAC website images. To make sure you are included, send me 3 images with title, media and size and a link to your website or FB art page or blog. IF YOU HAVE LET YOUR MEMBERSHIP LAPSE, WE WILL GIVE YOU A MONTH OR TWO AND THEN TAKE DOWN YOUR WEBSITE LISTING.

There's a new section of the Members' only area of the website. Under Resources, there is a Barter/Trade/Sell section. This is not for selling artwork but is instead an area where artists can offer or ask for supplies or help: Have canvases you won't use? Sell them here. Need someone to help you build frames? Ask here. Want to trade an artwork for supplies? Send a link to your website and someone may have what you need. Send your offer or request to Elaine Taylor, along with your contact information and we will post it.

Call or email Elaine Taylor at 817.298.3021 or gallerymanager@fwcac.org or Rachel Ireland at 817.298.3024 or rachel@artscouncilfw.org to get more information on these or any of our programs.
