  3. Participation Committee Report:

Six Members were present Eddie, Jeffery, Melanie, Ron, Dragana and Harriet.

1. Susan O’Neil was unanimously approved for her original painting on canvas. She was also asking to be allowed to sell photos of her work, which we are disapproving as our feeling is that the photography category is closed ( has reached it’s cap). She paints still lives, landscaping, Key West buildings, scenes and such. She also displays her work at Island Arts and has a website at Susanoneilpaintings.com. We feel that she will be a great addition to our group and hope that she will choose to come once we accept her. We have a new issue/complaint about one of our photographers which I may have in my possession in time for the board meeting Wednesday; otherwise we need to add it to the next agenda. Lastly, there is some concern that of all the artist that we have approved only a handful have set up within the next thirty days, so that effectively those are the only additions because according to the SOP’s if the artist that has been juried in does not set up at Mallory within those days they are removed from the roster and must be re-juried and pay the application fee again to work at the sunset celebration event. We wonder if this detail needs to be pointed out to prospective jurying applicants.
