Seven years ago The Artists Gallery

opened an exciting chapter in my life

that I had always wanted to pursue:

painting full time! I had just finished

my teaching and administrative

career when Kay Hofler invited me

to the monthly opening receptions.

I discovered a cooperative that was

welcoming and nurturing. Since

joining I have renewed contacts with

former art students and colleagues

and made new associations with

gallery members, patrons and

customers. I also organize the

gallery’s education outreach program

of workshops and demonstrations.

Exchanging ideas and viewpoints with

fellow artists has been stimulating

to both the creative expression and

discovery in my work. All these

experiences enrich my life beyond

measure. On this 25th Anniversary,

I wish many more years of success

for The Artists Gallery!
