The AAG May meeting will be held Monday, May 10 at the Aiken Center for the Arts. We will again forgo our social time and start the meeting at 7pm. We will continue to follow the ACA protocols for distanced seating and face coverings.
Our program will feature Eric Mauro who is a glass artist from Boston.
In addition to our program we will also elect our board for next year. Members present either in person or via Zoom will considered eligible to vote. Due to some reshuffling of board members and those stepping off the board a total of six positions will be filled.
The slate of candidates for election are as follows:
President, Chris McKeel
Vice President, Karey Santos
Treasurer, John Gordon
Secretary, Brooks Brown
Publicity Director, Robbie Robb
Show Director, Pat Gericke
Board members continuing for the next year are:
