Artists Guild General Meeting/Board Elections - Saturday, June 13 (13 Jun 2026)

Sat, 13 Jun 2026 17:00:00 GMT

Dear Members of the Artists Guild,

The Artists Guild will hold its annual General Meeting on
Saturday, June 13, 2026, from 10 a.m. to 12 noon PDT via Zoom.
We hope you will join us for this important meeting.

During the meeting, you will receive updates on past and upcoming
Guild activities and exhibitions. Then, attending Guild Members
will elect the Board of Directors for the coming fiscal year.

The slate of the proposed Board candidates is as follows:

Jody Abssy
Cecilia Anastos
Jim Bliesner
Jennifer Byrne
Lunjia Hu
Kevin Inman
Barbara Leitzel
Mark-Elliott Lugo
Leslie Pierce
Arlette Stella
Lily Tanzer
Vira Ustianska
Angelika Villagrana
Jon Ohl Webster

Once our membership has voted for the board candidates, I will announce the officers which are appointed by the board.

Board members will then introduce themselves to you
and you will hear an address by me about our agenda
for the next fiscal year.

To continue with our agenda, we need more help with
marketing, promotion and hospitality.
There can be co-chairs for any position, or you may
only work on a small fraction of these positions.
If you are interested in volunteering, please contact me to
discuss how you may assist us. Thank you.

After the formal meeting, we will, as always, invite attendees
to share one piece of their work. Since we have less time due to the formal meeting, we would like to extend the art exchange to 12:30 p.m. PDT.

To receive the Zoom link for our June 13 General Meeting,
please RSVP to gelikavillagrana@gmail.com by Friday evening, June 12.

I look forward to seeing you virtually on June 13.

Best wishes, and many thanks for
your continued support of the Artists Guild.
