Our President, Theodore, has scheduled our next members meeting on Thursday, March 7th at 6pm. The program will be about COG (Creative opportunity Grants) funds available to our membership.
The COG program will begin with the 2023 grant recipients showing and talking about their artwork and how the COG grant helped them .
The COG Committee will then kick off the the 2024 grant applications, discussing the process , requirements and guidelines. They will also answer any questions.
Hope to see you there!
Directly influenced by a lifetime of pop culture, graphic design, and the playful joy of modern art, Norman avidly collects paper and 3D objects to incorporate directly into his own work. The resulting art is characterized by whimsy and a none-too-subtle dose of nostalgia. While most of his pieces are overwhelmingly FUN!, some tap into the discombobulation of childhood/life. His storytelling allows the viewer to fully immerse in the subject.
