Just to remind the Membership
that we now have FIVE venues to exhibit our work. These are available to all
dues-paying WAAL members on a first-come, first-serve basis. Sites become
available on the first of each month, and our work can hang for a month (or
longer, depending on demand). We will each be responsible for hanging our own
work and taking it down, and for any and all publicity. Three of the choice
sites—till recently available only through juried competition by the MAC--are
now available without any jurying whatsoever! You need only contact me, and
together we will decide on a month that is available and convenient. Each site
has the appropriate hardware for hanging our pictures.
1. WORTHINGTON RECREATION CENTER. A choice location that can easily accommodate
a dozen two-dimensional works, depending on size.
2. WORTHINGTON MUNICIPAL BUILDING. From a dozen to 20+ 2-D works, as the
second-floor hall area is also available for hanging.
3. PARK NATIONAL BANK. A half-dozen 2-D works.
4. GUERNSEY BANK. A glass case accommodates four 16x20 2-D works, plus two or
three 8x10s. Appropriate for small sculptures, ceramics, etc.
5. MARKET MORTAGE. A splendid large wall that can easily accommodate a dozen 2-D
works.
You may partner with one or more WAAL members for any exhibit. In my experience,
the staff of these venues is helpful and friendly, and will gladly answer our
questions—about, e.g., whether three-dimensional works can be displayed. They
seem genuinely delighted to display our work, and express concern if their walls
go bare for even a day! For WAAL Members ONLY, s’il vous plait! No Exceptiions!!
A new film has been produced, ART IS LIFE IS ART,

Therapy at Mt. Mary College in Milwaukee, Ws. while on an educational-teaching
tour, e-mailed Don from China, " Don, I showed the video film at Hong Cong
University this morning. It got a standing ovation. . . unusual for these fairly
reserved folks . . . Don Jones is a hit in HK. . .(ha!) the world premier went
well. . . off to Taiwan for more of same stuff. love, Bruce." Don is

Paul Graham news:
1) I have three black & white photos in the Ohio State Fair (Professional
Division).
2) I have one sepia tone photo that was juried into a national show at the
Xavier University Art Gallery in Cincinnati (8/27-9/25).
3) I was asked by the Columbus Aids Task Force to donate a piece (color photo)
to their Art For Life Benefit Auction; that event is 9/25.
4) The show I've done here at Griswold ('08) and at the Marysvilled Library
('09) of my father's WWII photos ("Photographs of Occupied Japan") will hang in
Sept. and Oct. at the Ross County Historical Museum in Chillicothe. My father is
a Ross County native and still lives near Chillicothe, so this is pretty
exciting for my family.
