Topics Discussed:

projects; member would be expected to attend the event in question, take
photos to upload on our website; and write up three lines
• Proposal to create a moderated blog in which Lexington artists can converse
about art, questions re their art, or even solicit help finding a writing group,
for example
• Chris presented the Treasurer's Report. MCC had suggested a new format,
which Chris to adopt.
• Approval letters must be sent out no sooner than 2 weeks after rejection
letters; Diamond sent out rejections. Victoria to write up (Jan. 20th) and print
acceptance letters and deliver to Zoe who will include inserts and mail out.
