Big changes as ArtOrg moves to Phase 2!
ArtOrg has experienced fast growth since its inception less than 1 year ago. We have well over 125 members, have offered over 100 classes, held about 85% of those classes, given over 7 exciting shows in our Moving Walls Gallery at 200 Division Street, have 7 business partners and received a couple of grants to run a children’s program this summer. Thanks for helping contribute to that success!
While we feel good about these past accomplishments, we also feel that a new organizational structure will help ArtOrg serve you even better in the future.
So, on Wednesday, May 25 the ArtOrg Board of Directors decided by consensus that we would replace the old board with a new set of board members. This would change the board composition from the present 3 people to 9. This will be a great group of individuals comprised of all parts of the community—and many of this new board have already agreed to serve and are excited about taking over.
Heather Robins has also decided to leave the Director position, as Leanne Stremcha is also leaving ArtOrg as of June 1 st . We all want to thank Heather and Leanne for their great work in helping ArtOrg grow. Dave Machacek is staying on as staff to assist the transition process and facilitate a continuation of gallery shows, classes and other planned ArtOrg activities.
Thanks for your continued support!
