Demo artists are encouraged to bring
brochures, business cards, info on how to join various art groups,
etc… Elaine Waters, Carolyn Tolliver, Dr. Carl Hoelle, and Monique
Spinabella have already volunteered to demo.
PAG’s selection to be a Judge (one of three to be
selected) may show, but cannot enter the competition. The Judges
this year will be from different backgrounds and experience, so that
each year there are different judges, on a rotation.

well as Sponsor (twenty dollars donation gets a mention as a Sponsor
at the Fair!
