JUNE 2017 MAAA Workshops Dear MAAA members, MAAA Member Opportunities MAAA Member News Non-MAAA Workshops & Opportunities After much consideration I have come to the conclusion that I can not be the President efficiently. My health has taken a turn for the worse and the duties are more than I can handle at the time. I hope to continue as a member and seek to add venues, where we can show our Artwork. We have added the City of Keene, 3rd floor, Mayors office, there is space for up to 8 paintings/photos. and am working on showing at the County Court House also. With much regret, Patrick Wright Classifieds MAAA Executive Committee & Contact List Classifieds
