A Message from the

Guild of Creative Art’s

Co-Presidents

As we enter into the third year of Covid, we are sobered, but at the same time
inspired, by how the Guild community has responded to us. How can you not be inspired
and thankful for $30,000 in donations? How can you not be inspired and thankful for staff
and volunteers who have helped us garner several grants to the tune of $40,000+? That
quest continues as we work on two other grants. Thank you Vicky and Audrey, as well as
all who are involved!

Our membership is already over 182 as of January 20,2022. That must be a record!
We are well on the way to top last year’s peak membership of 353 members.

Renewing your membership in a timely fashion ensures that we can pay our bills.
Please renew your membership ASAP. To apply for a membership or renew your existing
membership on our secure website, click HERE.

Of course, the battle continues to balance expenses and income by the end of the
year. However, for the second year in a row, we entered January 2022 cash positive.

Thanks to all who support our Guild. Please continue do so.

The “EDGY SHOW” can be viewed in the Guild Gallery, and the original artwork

nd
will be on display until February 2 . The “EDGY SHOW” is always a fun exhibit as it
encourages our artists to be innovative, experimental, and provocative. Due to Covid
concerns, our reception for this show was cancelled. To safely see the exhibit in our gallery,
call the Guild at 732-741-1441 to schedule an appointment.

This Art Galleries Online presentation of the “EDGY SHOW” contains

images submitted by the artists of the work they displayed in the show. Also included is a
list of our new members, recognition of our recent volunteers, and a preview of our
upcoming shows. We hope you enjoy it.

Coming up: Our Associate and Exhibiting Members Show. Be a part of it! Continue to
make the Guild a “go-to” place to view the best in art. Stay safe and be well.

The Guild of Creative Art: First of its kind. First in its class!
