Congratulations to the Arizona artists who were accepted into the CPSA International Exhibition this year. MaryAnn Kot, Jane McCreary, Rose Moon, Helen Rowles and Catherine Sawner.
At the November 2009 meeting, CPSA DC 212 members elected CPSA Signature member Toni James as President of our local chapter. Congratulations to Toni and I am sure the members will be happy to step up and help her with all the work that keeps a chapter running smoothly. Take a look at some of Toni's art at http://www.desertwindsstudio.com/ and you can also follow Toni's blog at http://tonijames.blogspot.com/
As of 2010, CPSA DC #12 has joined the Arizona Art Alliance (www.azartalliance.com), a non-profit organization with a membership of 25 Arizona-based art groups. The member groups represent close to 4,000 visual artists who produce fine art in over a dozen mediums. AZ Art Alliance offers many opportunities for artists to showcase their works.
