Doors open at 6:30 P.M. for those arriving early to help set up the room.*

EVERYONE IS WELCOME! Share this invitation with all your artist friends in Houston. Refer people to this blog so they can see what we’re about. (If you’re part of an arts organization, feel free to invite the whole group – the more the merrier.) I apologize for the short notice – and I promise you a meeting that will be well worth working into your busy schedule. (See agenda below this post.)

DIRECTIONS:
Easy to find – 5202 Bissonnet is about 0.7 miles west of Loop 610 at the intersection of Bellaire Blvd. and Bissonnet. 5202 is in a small tan, one-story strip center on the north side of Bissonnet and just a hair east of the Bellaire-Bissonnet intersection. You’ll see HCAA Art Center on the sign over the door. Please park in back, on the Cedar Street side of the building (see map), and come in the back door – look for the artist’s palette on the back door.

*HOW YOU CAN HELP:
If you can arrive at 6:30 P.M., please do so. I’d like some help setting up the room. I also want to station someone at both doors to direct people in. I’ll bring bottled water – if anyone can bring snacks to share, I’m sure they’d be appreciated.

THANKS again for your interest in Artists Alive and Well. Before you know it, we’ll be creating exciting opportunities for artists in the Houston area. See you Wednesday night.

MEETING AGENDA – ARTISTS ALIVE AND WELL – JULY 18, 2007

• Introductions
• Purpose of Artists Alive and Well – We’re not here to discuss art techniques or to teach you art. We’re here to support and educate you in new ways to express your creativity powerfully – free of the “poor starving artist” mindset and alive with fun and satisfaction! If you’re already there, I invite you to join us as a mentor to other artists.
• YOUR WISHES – What do YOU want from Artists Alive and Well?
• Brainstorming for art exhibit/sale/auction – or whatever we choose for our “big” event. I’m already talking to gallery owners and they’re excited about what we can create together.
• Schedule the next meeting – date, time and location are open.

THANKS for attending and for sharing your passion for art! -- Linda
