Notes From Creative Arts

        1. Creative Arts is holding our Year-End Spring Arts Night Celebration on Wed, June 16th, beginning with a Reception & Art Exhibit at 6pm and performances/awards starting promptly at 7pm. This is a FREE event and we invite you to attend. Your RSVP by June 14th will help us properly prepare the space & the food.

        2. Reading's Friends & Family Day is Sat, June 19th from 11am-3pm. Creative Arts will have a booth. If you are unable to have a booth, but would like us to help distribute some of your information just let me know. I will need everything dropped off at Creative Arts office by 5pm on Thurs. the 17th.

        3. The Reading Street Fair is being planned for Sunday, Sept. 12th. Creative Arts will once again team up with TCC members to have a joint booth. If you would like to join our booth please let me know. Last year we reserved two slots to ensure enough room for everyone. If you can make a donation to offset the cost of the booth(s) that would be great, but it is not required to participate with us. I'm also working with Phil at RCTV and we may do some things in their new space on Main Street. We'll have more details on all of this over the summer.

       4. NEW!!!! . . . Please save the date, Saturday, Oct. 2nd , for our firstCommunity Arts Festival !! . . . I'm still working on the details for this event, but the idea is to host an Open House for The Cultural Connection organizations (& possibly other arts/cultural organizations) at Creative Arts on Oct. 2nd. This is meant to be a community wide celebration. There will be opportunities for booths, display/activity areas, performances, and more. The more participation the better for all of us!!  If you would like to be involved in planning the day please let me know as soon as possible. Also, please share any ideas, thoughts, suggestions, etc. that you may have about the event!!If you know of other events or activities that individual organizations or TCC should be aware of or involved in please let us know!

Thanks & hope to see everyone very soon,
Jennifer
