ARTS COMMITTEE
MEETING NOTES
February 7, 2008

April 12th Business Expo

Laura is asking some other A.C.T. committee members to see if anyone can volunteer to work at the EXPO. However, if anyone from this committee can volunteer, please email me back with the available time(s) that you could work that day. Wendy and Charlene volunteered to put a scrapbook together showcasing pictures of the last few events that we have sponsored. If anyone has any photos that have been taken during past events and can bring them to the next meeting, it would be appreciated.

Summer Concerts

Dawn has done an outstanding job getting this years concerts together. Here is a list of the performers and dates. Total cost of these performers to the committee is $2,525.00.

Dawn is also working with some people about getting signage for the concerts.

Laura also made a motion to dedicate the summer concerts series to Sister Aggie Soenneker of Clares Well. The motion was approved.

Garden Tour

Saturday, July 12th is the date of the Petals and Palate Garden Tour. Charlene and Laura are scouting out a few people to participate this year. Wendy will follow up with Sharon Gammel of Thayers B&B to see if she still wants to participate this year. Wendy will work on getting the posters created. Wendy has also created a sheet with all the business locations to either hang posters and/or ask for prize donations. We talked about splitting up poster and prize duties amongst the committee members.

Art Crawl

The Art Crawl dates have been set for Thursday Oct 2nd. We wanted to get this on the agenda early so we can start getting artists and performers committed to this event. If you know of anyone (including yourselves) who would be interested, please let me or Laura know as soon as possible. On my notes sheet I had written down Meredith Johanssen next to the Art Crawl. Im not sure if she has committed or not.

Holiday Home Tour

The date for this event has been set for Saturday, November 22nd. Need to find participants for this event.

Next Meeting is: Thursday, March 6th at 5:00 at the Snooty Fox.

Thanks,
Wendy Webb
