Member Critique: 5:30 PM – 6:45 PM

Critique begins promptly at 5:30 pm and runs to 6:45 pm prior to the General meeting. Paintings and drawings do not need to be framed. Unfinished pieces are welcome for suggestions to finish them.
Those members arriving with work after 6:30 risk not having their work critiqued depending on volume of work brought in earlier. Please, only 1 piece of artwork per person.
DBG Paintout meeting: 5:30 PM - 6:30 PM before the February General Meeting!

Please complete the first 2 pages (Hold Harmless and Volunteer sheet) and mail to SAL's PO Box or turn in at the February meeting.
Please come early to have all your questions answered and to sign-up for the DBG Paintout. It is almost upon us and we hope some new members will join us in the Garden this year. If you do not work in oils, that is OK. We have plenty of watercolor, acrylic, and mixed media artists and we hope a few photographers will consider being a part of this year's event as well. This is one of our biggest events, with sales from last year's Paintout totaling $8,000! The $40 entry fee covers expenses and includes your entry into the Garden for the Paintout and Sale days. A portion of the proceeds benefit our SAL scholarship fund and the Desert Botanical Garden. The last chance to sign-up will be at the February meeting.
Contact Annie Gillette 2nd VP of Shows with questions.
