As we approach the end of our 2024 program, we want to remind you of several important expectations and deadlines to ensure a successful conclusion:

  1. Final Project Decision and Supplies:

Please finalize your decision on your final project and let Josie know what you will be creating by May 30. Remember, the medium is your choice, but should demonstrate artistic growth through the semester. If any supplies need to be purchased, kindly inform Josie at your earliest convenience so arrangements can be made.

2. Completion and Delivery of Art Projects:

All art projects must be completed and delivered to the Guild by 4:30 PM on June 29, 2024. This deadline is crucial for the curation and installation process. This includes art projects from throughout the semester as well as your final project. 

3. Participation in Curation and Installation:

We expect your participation in the curation and installation of artwork, commencing at 10:00 AM on July 1, 2024. Your involvement is essential in creating a successful exhibition. If you are unable to participate, please inform Josie at your earliest convenience.

4. Planning the Opening Reception:

Your assistance in planning the details of the opening reception is greatly appreciated. We encourage everyone to contribute ideas to make this event memorable.

5. Attendance at the Opening Reception:

Plan to attend the Opening Reception for your exhibit on July 5, 2024 from 5-8 pm. Invite your teachers, family, and friends. It's an excellent opportunity to celebrate your hard work and network with fellow artists. Our receptions are casual so dressing up is not required, but some artists opt to demonstrate professionalism. 

6. Artwork Pickup:

Artwork pickup will be available during open hours from July 29 to August 2. Please ensure all pieces are collected during this time. Any artwork remaining after August 2 will become the property of Peoria Art Guild unless prior arrangements have been made.

Your cooperation in meeting these expectations is crucial for the success of our program's conclusion. If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out.

Thank you for your dedication and hard work throughout the program. Let's make the final stages as rewarding as possible!
