The AAG April meeting was held this past Monday, at the Aiken Center for the Arts. We hope everyone who joined in person or via the Zoom link earlier in the day enjoyed the presentation by Nick Mackman. Nick shared some interesting insights and some humorous tales, so if you had to miss the meeting we did record Nick’s presentation and it can be seen by following the link below.

One artist celebrating The Friends of Hopelands and Rye Patch is AAG member Brooks Brown.
I am going to use this piece by Brooks as an advertisement for submitting information about all the things within the art community that we are involved in along with pictures of our art to the newsletter. This is a great way to inform the membership and share our art. I am using this particular piece as the advertisement since I noted on Monday that it had been sold! To submit news to the newsletter simply use the “Submit News” button found in the newsletter link. More information about submissions to the newsletter is noted at the bottom of this page.
