Report from the Annual Retreat

This is a brief summary of the goals and ideas outlined during our retreat.

• Putting up videos of members on the ACGA website and Facebook page.  The videos could be demonstrations, studio tours, interviews, etc.  
• Set aside and area at the Clay and Glass Festival for showing the work of brand-new ACGA members.
• Working on outreach through schools and education. Being a mentor. Legitimizing art making as a real job.
• Hiring a professional for ACGA's social media and membership development.
• Promote member Open Studios during the holiday months with an email blast to customers.
• Develop the ACGA customer email list, especially during the Clay and Glass Festival and other exhibitions.
• Developing partnerships with clay and glass related businesses.
• Get together more often!
