Yesterday's Meeting

Yesterday's meeting went very well.  Only just a few of us there but we have come to a decision that the downtown Muskegon Area is our ideal location for a number of reasons that I will try to outline in this post.

Particularly we have decided to first approach the Frauenthal Theater complex.  While we have not gone down this road yet we thought that the interior long lobby area would be a great venue while we start out small.  We would have the power of the Frauenthal newsletter to outreach and we have begun talking with the Museum of Art to help along with the Muskegon Chronicle.  In this circle we can begin to reach the West Michigan Area to help create an art destination of our own.

Our ultimate goal is to bring this event down to the street level.  To create for our invited artists the opportunity to show and sell their work in an environment that is conducive to create a destination for art lovers and collectors.  This is a new idea for this area in that we are the risk takers.

We'll start out small and get on the map this year.  We hope to attract painters and sculptures that will lift this event to one that will be talked about here but everywhere!
