June Art Show & Sale and Annual Picnic

We have arranged to have a June Art Sale:
Friday, June 9 (evening tentative hours 6 - 9 pm)
Saturday, June 10 (tentative hours 10 am - 4 pm) 

It will be at the Crossmount Art Barn which is 5.8 km south of the German Concordia Club on Hwy 219 (straight out Lorne Ave). 

Details are still being worked out, but we thought that we should let the members know of this opportunity so that they can start planning.  

The cost to members who participate is still being determined - all sales are directly to them with no commissions. If we can get enough interest we are hoping to keep the cost per artist down to $35.  
Let me know if you are interested in participating.

ANNUAL PICNIC / BBQ to be held at the home of Leroy & Rina Royer again this year on:  Sunday, June 11.  

Out-of-town members could stay in Saskatoon for the weekend to be at the sale and at the picnic. Will be a great weekend!
