TAG Newsletter October 2020

Hello TAG Members!

Happy Fall, Happy Halloween!

I hope everyone is well and staying safe and not letting all

the crazy virus and political stuff get you down. Our president

Joan Monroe needs our help! Please contact her (artbyjoan@gmail.com)

if you have not picked up your work from our last show.

She would like to use her hallway again.

Tha High Museum is open! You can go online and purchase

tickets for a timed visit. The Booth Museum is open as well.

They are also doing timed visits. So now we have two museums

available for an in person art fix.

For a virtual visit you can go to thebreman.org to check out photos

of jazz greats by Herb Snitzer. It's a little hard to navigate but if

you click on the circles over the photos it will bring the photo up so you

can see it. The show includes photos of Louis Armstrong, Miles Davis

Nina Simone and others.

Joan sent me a link for virtual classes from Center for the Arts, Eagle Rock.

They look like fun! They have different classes, some with

Halloween themes like mask making, others not so much, like the textural

collage classes. Prices vary, Doodle Hour is free! They are based out of

Los Angeles so the supplies delivery won't apply.

TAG had an in-person meeting in September. We met outside, socially

distant and wore masks too. It was an extended show and tell. It was

great seeing everyone who could make it to the meeting. Les Scarborough

is having health problems, cross your fingers, pray, have a good thought

that he feels better soon.

Hang in there, make art! This won't last forever even if it seems like

it sometimes.

As all TAG activities are put on hold until we are back on “terra firma”, and we hear the all clear, I want to reach out to each of you with the belief that each of us will come out of this situation having gained something unique with insight and love (and, hopefully, not too many pounds from sitting around the house eating, LOL).

The minute we hear the “all clear”, we will be back at it with new works reflecting our introspective time at home.

Stay tuned. And, in the meantime, peruse the artwork displayed here and feel free to contact the artists and purchase any artworks you see. That will give our artists encouragement to persevere through this trying time.

Thank you,

Joan Monroe

President, Tucker Arts Guild
