Venice AAUW March Meeting- March 14th

1:30 to 3:00 PM 

Location – William H. Jervey, Jr. Library 


Presentation – What is Tech Trek and Comments from 2023 Attendees 

The March meeting will show us the rewarding effects on young girls who attended Tech Trek. This one-week summer camp is backed by AAUW’s research and designed to make STEM fields exciting and accessible to girls in middle school — the age when girls’ participation in these fields statistically drops. For many girls, the week-long camp sparks their curiosity and places them on a path toward success. The three 2023 campers who attended last summer will share their experience with the camp. Carol Newnam, long time Venice AAUW member, will give attendees a camp history.

Join the Butchers at their Venice Gallery & Studio ‘Meet the Artists’ spring event on Saturday, March 23rd, from 10 am to 3 pm. Clyde and Niki will be available to sign books and are looking forward to telling stories of their photographic adventures and beyond with you.


Experience the return of Clyde’s “America the Beautiful” exhibit, which has completed its decade-long journey across America and will be showcased in the showrooms. Additionally, enjoy a temporary exhibit exclusively for this event: a retrospective of Clyde’s photographic journey from 1971 to 1986, displayed in the darkroom.


Attendees will also have a sneak peek into Clyde's new book, “Lifeworks,” with the mock-up book on display, along with a never-before-seen photograph that will be featured in the limited edition book, limited to just 75 copies.


Here at the Venice Gallery & Studio, you will get a glimpse of how Clyde and Niki create their art, from capturing the environment, to getting the vision onto paper, and to the final framed artworks themselves –plus all of the time and hands-on work in between that makes their art so remarkable.


This event is FREE and open to the public. Questions?

Give us a call 941-486-0811.
