Lots of Activity in the City of the Arts!

This past weekend was a momentous one for Winston-Salem, the "City of the Arts," because our community celebrated the opening of the new Milton Rhodes Center for the Arts.  Associated Artists had a nice presence at the weekend festivities, with artist demos and a booth staffed with volunteers.  A big THANK you to all of our volunteers and artists - including Jack Hernon, Connie Chesner, Ralph Calhoun, Joe Bircher, Kathy Fritz, Lee Reynolds, Scott Davis, Leslie Karpinski, Bill Gramley, and Suzette Sides to name a few!  You did an amazing job sharing with the public about Associated Artists!
