The contents of the Traveling Exhibit will be at the March meeting.
This is your opportunity to retrieve old pieces and submit new. The Traveling Exhibit is an important part of what we do and we request that members submit a few pieces for the display.

The following is from the Guild's Bylaws:
"The purpose of the Guild shall be to educate the public about and to study and promote an interest in the use of polymer clay as an artistic medium by: - fostering public education through sharing information, giving demonstrations of polymer clay work at meetings, and conducting workshops;
- developing opportunities for polymer clay artists to show their work to the public and to engage in public service activities."

===== Minutes

No minutes were taken at the December meeting, as it was our annual tag sale and pot luck lunch.
