Due to an extraordinary response to Jean Makela's “Design Sense” workshop she has consented to continue it as an informal workshop on the second and fourth Wednesday afternoons during the summer. If you are interested please email Jean or call her at 393-1176.
Carl Sparfield organizes outings for the the Camera Club and has volunteered to host a few for the SRAL. These will take place next fall, and may include a "Windows and Doors" tour in Tucson, and Gammons Gulch. Please contact Skip Perkins if you are interested. Watch here for updates.
There has been a discussion for some time about what happens if the same people repeatedly win the top spots at our juried competitions. We all enjoy the work of these extraordinary artists, but in an effort to encourage everyone to participate in our shows the SRAL board has voted for a new set of restrictions for those who enter our Members Juried competition. The full text of the draft resolution is here but the gist is; if you win two or more cash prizes in three consecutive years you will be ineligible to enter the show for two years but instead will be invited to show in a special category called Winners' Invitational. Those showing in the Winners' Invitational category would not be judged, could not compete for the 1st, 2nd, 3rd or honorable mention prizes but would be still be eligible for the "People's Choice" Award. These changes will take effect in 2013.
Turning Bear was our demonstrator several years ago and he taught classes that several of us took, he has new classes available on drawing.
