What you need to know...

Hey Gang, this is a little overdue, but better late than never, right? Of course, right!

Back on October 30th, Sangi, Amy, Katrina, Joyce, Stephany, and myself had a little meeting to discuss the future of this student group and how it will be organized. I'll spare you of the tedious details and fill you in on what you really need to know.

  • We are hoping to have at least one event each month. These events will vary: movie nights, speakers, work shops, art shows, etc. Basically whatever we want!
  • The ball is starting to roll for fund-raising! Stephany has taken charge of our future Etsy account, and we are hoping to start the cash flow in the near future. Be thinking about things you would be willing to donate to the group, be it existing art from forever ago, or things you want to make now.
  • On the horizon are possible scholarships to attend the AATA conference. (This is still somewhat early in development, but we're getting there). In order to put our funds to practical use, we want to make the money available to people who need it! As we get closer to that (and as we actually get money), there will be more details.
  • There is a Facebook page... join that (if you haven't already)
  • Also, for some strange reason, our logo with the SAIC square is no longer allowed (can't use their logo), so we are calling for submissions for a new logo- all you graphic designers pull out your Macs and get to work!
  • Finally, the blog itself, if you are reading this now, that's a good sign that you have found it! If you are interested in writing for the blog, please contact Katrina or Amy. They hold the blogging key.
I think that's it for now.
