CVA News
Offering the CVA Loft for June 17- July 31
Opening Reception - June 24th
This is an open show, no specific theme. However, it can’t be something that you hung at CVA
before, but okay if shown at the clinic before.
Art Opportunities:
• Agricultural Art
• United FCS Call for Artists
• Arts Alive – donations of art
• Central Wisconsin Cultural Center (Wisconsin Rapids) CWCC@wctc.net

the new art opportunities.
• Pat Plunket volunteered to make list and send links to our blog.
We received a letter from Thomas Lidtke (Executive Director) of the Museum of Art in West
Bend, WI. They are in the process of building a new museum facility, which will be 32,000
square feet to be completed in 2012. One of his goals is to get all of Wisconsin’s art groups
into a network with opportunities to exhibit their artwork.
• He will be visiting our area on May 12 at 6:30 with a presentation at Howard Johnsons.
• This is HUGE !!!! Everyone is Invited !!! Other art clubs will be invited to attend.
• They want to let the world know who the artists are in Wisconsin.
