The Midcoast Chapter has a combined zoom and in-person meeting set for 11:30 a.m. at the Belfast Public Library, 106 High St., on Saturday 13 January. On the agenda will be reports from members on exhibit venues for 2024. Those attending are asked to bring their own brown bag lunches and drinks. The official business will be brief and members are encouraged to bring an art piece to show and get feedback.
December’s Holiday Fair at the Rockland American Legion was not as lucrative as was hoped, and that venue will be crossed off the books for next year.
