Fall Reception Township Show
Again, we had a wonderful turnout for our fall reception.  The efforts of Ann Frommer promoting her solo show in the Lundt-Glover Gallery certainly paid off for attracting attendance. She exhibited 32 pieces in the L/G and 2 pieces in the members’ gallery. For music, Maestro Robert W. Butts, Music Director of the Baroque Orchestra of NJ, who played the recorder along with a trio, also from the Baroque Orchestra of NJ (2 flutes & a cello) playing for the enjoyment of those who strolled around the Lundt Glover Gallery.She sold a total of 9 pieces. Four of those in the L/G & 1 in the regular gallery; the other 4 pieces were unframed matted as well as orders of the same which were displayed. About 80 people came to view her works.  The show will continue until December 4th so you will still have a chance to see it if you didn’t make it to the reception.  We hope to see more members attending our shows in the future.  Nicole Schmidt sold a piece of her art work.

Programs
Andy Bobeck lead a critique of local artists.  We had about 7 artists turn out to have their artwork critiqued.  It was lots of fun and productive.  We hope we can do this more often.  Philla Barkhorn arranged the program and it was enjoyed by all attendees.  Thank you Andy and Philla.
