Welcome all established artists, photographers, sculptors to our SE
Wisconsin FAME initiative!! Fine Arts 'n Motion Events are happening.
Even
with a small turnout at our meeting last week, we have a plan and are
going for it. Our greater community needs us and needs Art here!
Plan
to attend a get-together on Monday eve. May 21 to regroup and plan our
first and Mukwonago's first "Art in the Park" event featuring us!
We will meet at 5-6 pm either at BrookLife or another destination, maybe in the Indianhead park area where we will be featured.

Excerpts from the meeting minutes
The Chamber will again
host the very popular-”Music in the Park “on
July 14 at Indianhead Park from 6-9pm. A fundraiser is underway to
build the new Band shell there as well. The Chamber wishes to add an
art show but does not
have the knowledge or connections to do this. They asked us to take
ownership of
this event-- with their support (marketing, fee waivers, and
assistance).
It will be a challenge,
but is a GREAT opportunity to build upon. We decided to join this
initiative and develop it as our first art event/show for our FAME
group. With short notice, we will start small or as a community ‘Art
Start’ event with great potential to grow in the future.
Vivian Foster will lead
the effort to host a Plein Air weeklong event leading to a Saturday
capstone at Art in the Park.
We encourage you to join
in, plan, develop and participate. We will develop a juried system,
and minimum operating-cost fee structure. The promotion and publicity
will be arranged by the Mukwonago Chamber of Commerce.
Please reply to Jim
MacDonald by Thursday, May 17th
if you are interested in planning or participating.
