Neusole Glassworks

Couldn't resist adding a few more pictures from the last WACC meeting, October 10.

October 10 Meeting at Neusole Glassworks

The expedition at Neusole Glassworks was a delightful experience. About 15 members made their own flowers, each one very unique and exquisite. Thanks to Diana Taylor for making all the arrangements.

Neusole Glassworks, located at 656 East McMillan, has workshops and classes open to the public. They will soon have a furnace on wheels that will expand their educational programs.

Busy September

So much happens in September! Our regular monthly meetings began a new season with a potluck luncheon on September 12. A $500 scholarship was awarded to Ms. Didem Mert, a graduate of Anderson High School who is now attending NKU. Beth Goldfarb spoke about the Bricks for Breast Cancer campaign. She brought several bricks to display, and a few bricks that had been decorated by WACC members were on view.

The official ribbon cutting ceremony and grand opening of the Woman's Art Club Cultural Center (fondly called "the Barn") was at 5:30 September 19. See additional photos on the Barn Blog.

The annual Fun Razer celebration followed, with jazz by the Xavier Professors, tasty tidbits by Creative Cuisine, and incredible sweets supplied by our dedicated bakers.

Around $800 was raised by the basket raffle. $1,600 from sales of mini-masterpieces and gallery sales. Thank you, WACC members and area artists for your many, many hours of work and generous donations.

This group really knows how to party! Don't miss the fun on September 19. The Governor has been invited to a ribbon cutting ceremony at 5:30, and the Fun Razer starts at 6:00. Admission is $30 for two drinks, tasty nibbles, and an art sale you'll hear more about later.

Familiar faces are helping out at the Barn this summer! Pictured left is Lynn Hogan, who taught a sculpture class in June. On the right, Diana Taylor assisted with classes that were taught by Judy Perkins in June and July. The younger children's classes were well attended, and the new classroom (we call it the Tack Room) worked out great.

2009 Barn Yard Sale

Saturday, May 30

The Barn Yard Sale was another big success. We raised over $1,200 from all the wonderful donations that were contributed by WACC members and many friends of the Barn. We benefited from other yard sale traffic, since it was Mariemont's official 'yard sale day.' In the top picture, you can see that buyers were clamoring around the Bake Sale tent until it sold out around 1:30. Linda Sullivan organized and manned the bake sale, which netted $186. Shown in the picture below it are volunteers Diana Taylor and Jane McDonald, who are doing a brisk business with customer Jessica Boone.
