North Shore Artists' Guild (formerly West Vancouver Sketch Club) Januaiy 2008 Page 6 Minutes of Meeting Tuesday, September 18, 2007 1 2 Jacquie called the meeting to order. Adoption of minutes of last meeting, November 20, 2007. Jim Elton motioned. Betty Ditters seconded. Executive reports: a) Corresponding Secretary: Nell Turner (absent). 3 b) Exhibitions: Manfred Krefteck for Heather Luccock. Manfred had no report. According to Shelley James, the Chamber of Commerce has moved its location and there is no longer an opportunity to exhibit paintings there. Question to membership: Did Heather arrange for one of the members to look after the Park Royal Community room? Betty Johansson and Shelley James are looking after this room. Although Park Royal has changed pians on us often, at this point the 24th of January is the expected date to set up this ongoing show at Park Royal South (six months duration). The membership didn't seem to think this venue was a very good one and Shelley says there are only 8 hooks in the room at present. This run will be a trial.
