All LAG members, you have until Dec. 15 to bring in boutique items. There are some beautiful things in now, but could always use more. If you bring in something, you do need to put in time hosting in the gallery.

Member News
Joyce Jacobs had a stroke about 2 weeks ago. She is doing well but it will be a long haul. Joyce has 2 tumors and the doctors have decided to shrink them using a series of treatments. Please keep her in your thoughts and prayers for a speedy recovery. She really enjoyed the get well cards and doodles that members have been sending her. She can always use more, so if you create one or several, drop them off to the gallery or send to her, we will get them delivered to Joyce. (1620 Twin Ridge Road, Lincoln, NE 68506)
Thank you guild members!!

If you have a single picture, (18 x 24 approx) you can show for one month for $10; again, putting in some time at the gallery and selling without any commission taken out. This is a great time to put your toe in the water so to speak, with our Holiday Boutique going on.
