If you have not seen them yet, please check Blair's Dec 11 emails to all members. She's asking each of us to send her the title of one more colored pencil piece to be included in the show at the Unitarian Church of Rockville: we're 25 pieces short! We're also asked to send her some images of our colored pencil artwork to help Connie prepare a cd of our work to accompany an application to Glenview Mansion for a future DC109 show.
Blair's second email lets us know that, following the Unitarian Church show's opening reception on Sunday, January 10, DC 109 members are meeting at a Georgetown gallery in Cady's Alley at 2:00, where Chris has arranged for us to visit a show of Willard Wigan's micro-sculpture. Let Chris know if you plan to attend and she'll send you the details!

New CPSA DC109 Website Now Live!
The new website is now up and running -- when you have a moment, click the "About CPSA DC109" link to the right to check it out! And if you have signed up to have your art work posted on the website and have not yet sent me images, (or if you have not signed up yet), take a look at the gallery pages: wouldn't you like one of your own?
The website also has an email function, so if you need to reach one of the DC109 Board members and are not sure how, just send an email to info@cpsa109.com and we'll make sure your email gets where it needs to go.
I hope you like the new site!

New CPSA/DC109 Website!
We are in the process of redesigning our DC109 website. In the next couple of days, you'll receive an email letting you know that the current website is inaccessible while the change-over is being effected. Once the new site is up and available, we will notify you to go check it out! As the new webmaster for DC109, I'd value your comments on the content and design of the new site.
The change-over will also affect the links on this page (to left of this post) for a short time until I am able to re-establish them, so don't worry if they don't work for a bit: I'll add another post when everything's restored.
The plan is to use this blog to keep you informed about upcoming events, like meetings, exhibits, and so forth, to use the DC109 newsletters to document our organization's past events and keep you engaged as members, and to use the DC109 website for content that does not change as frequently, such as who we are, how to contact and join us, the gallery of our members' art, access to a wide variety of websites of interest, and similar information. We hope the upshot of all this change will be a more dynamic and useful web experience for all our members, colleagues, and friends.
MEANWHILE, here are the upcoming events!
