April+21,+2016


 * Agenda/Minutes: **
 * Meeting #4- Thursday, April 21, 2016 - ** End of the Year Wrap-up

ACC Show went well, it was easy, appreciate everyone's effort, food was good, walls looked fuller, liked the fact elem. could show 6 pieces total one for each grade level, did not have a lot of artist statements because there were not that many, liked that there were not awards, MS art was better not separated that was better (easier for parents to find), made the room flow better, ACC does issue students a letter of recognition for showing work in the show.
 * __// - Review the 2015-16 year: //__**
 * // Positives: //**

LPS foundation show went well all the art was in one place so it was a better view, maybe for next year students could receive a thank you note from the LPS foundation for showing the work to the students.

LHS won best in show at the Continental League Show (YEAH!)

ACC awards for Middle and HS only, given to students by the teacher not at the show, certificates will be available night of the reception... Phil likes the judging at the ACC show...is the president's show that form of that? Next year we agreed that Middle and HS students could receive awards/certificated only and NOT a public announcement of those at the show but the teachers would give them to students at school

not everyone followed the size requirements for the LPS foundation show, maybe prepare for that at the start of the year (12x18 inches min size per work)
 * // Negatives: //**

change date of 1st meeting, Sept 22, 2016
 * // Proposed changes for 2016-17? //**

Have had issues with work being moved, lost, and we are "decorating" the walls and students are not being recognized or rewarded, lost the interest when they changed the lobby spaces to desks, so the areas are not as easy or good to show in
 * __// -ESC Display, changes? //__**

Items being placed in front of artwork in the space...very disrespectful

It is not really a "show", trouble with the displays, have to poke holes in the work, it is really hard to hang the work, really think the spaces and displays need to be better fit to show the work

Could we do framed displays and rotate by the quarter instead of by month?

Less art teachers and more shows for us and we struggle to fill our school space

"Purchase" award from the ACC show?

Could they rotate out the old bought artwork that already exists on the walls around the ESC?

These are just some issues and ideas that discussed we ended on that we would...**Contact ESC and invite to first meeting on how to move forward**


 * // - __Review Show Presentation Guidelines: VOTE on CHANGES-Art Teacher that were present voted!__ //**

YES Here is the NEW format moving forward: These should be printed on: AVERY White Business Cards 5371 (Laser) 250 cards 25/sheet 2"x3.5" (these can be purchased many places I got them on Amazon) The file above can be downloaded and is set to fit the Avery cards listed above you can use that exact template and change the information to make your labels!
 * 1. Change and create a NEW label template (including specific font type, size, etc....) **

PLEASE DO NOT DO THE FOLLOWING: - No sticker labels - No mat around the label - 3D work should be on a FLAT label just like 2D work - Tape your label onto the actual mat board space

ALL LABELS SHOULD BE HUNG OFF THE BOTTOM RIGHT HAND CORNER OF THE BLACK MAT BOARD ONLY!!! Hanging off the right hand corner, with NO matting around the card using the Avery Business card label. For 3D work the card must be FLAT, not tented
 * 2. Placement of label on mat board? **


 * 3. Group art pieces...how many does that count as? **

PLC goal to help others learn to Mat work...Tammy and Gayla are offering to help people learn and cut ANYTIME IF YOU CANNOT afford Mat Board please email ANNA and it will be supplied
 * 4. Mat cutting clinic offered? **

Jessie A will buy a new roll of Velcro for next year to share with those who need it, thank you so much!


 * Certificates-**noted above

The amount that it would cost to cover the artwork would not be worth it...if the teacher is worried about it sign a liability release or don't show that students work
 * 5. Art Show Insurance?**

Dates and contacts confirmed if things change please email Anna so she can update the sheet, dates will be confirmed before the end of the 2015-16 school year
