Discussion of Karen Petersen’s exhibit at Chandler Gallery and unveiling of her new public sculpture
Idea of getting together with other Randolph galleries to coordinate leaf-peeping tourism season—Ken will contact other galleries re: fall event, general joint brochure
Contacting people on e-mail list—Malia will give list to Ken to call personally
“Art from the heart of Vermont”—have painted hearts at galleries?
Next exhibit at Craft Center a GMCC member show this fall? To coincide with Craft Center open house and/or café opening also?
· Proposed date: opening reception September 17 through end of October
· Poetry slam?
Future show concept: “Something Funny”
Publicity—how (some might ask whether??) to get more people involved in the GMCC and to come to shows and events
· Facebook & other social media
· Seven Days
· Vermont Art Zine-- http://vermontartzine.blogspot.com/
· Vermont Life Magazine
· VT Dept of Tourism—tourist flyer racks
· http://www.vermontvacation.com/-- how to link to The Vermont Travel Planner
· Valley News
· Three Stallion Inn
· Randolph Area Chamber of Commerce, Randolph website
· Brochure—John Lutz?
· What doesn’t appear to work to get the word out? Herald, e-mail, posters
Zimet Art Project has work at the Shelburne Museum this summer, will be doing demonstration on Sunday 7/24’s Circus-palooza event
Sally Penrod show at Korongo Gallery July 22-August 28, opening Friday 7/22 5-7PM
Round Barn photography show opens August 1—Ken’s 5th year participating, sells well there
Artist’s Market—need info for each artist’s work (Ken will make up a form), labels (consistent format—coordinate with Susan Rockwell, Kevin will purchase vellum)
· Still room for new artists—current work can be consolidated as necessary, and new walls will become available
· Need small postcard-sized artist’s statements with contact info to mount with artwork, longer bio for binder
Other keys to a gallery’s success: renting studio space, on-site art classes, on-going grants, publicity
