2023 Spring Show & Silent Auction a Huge Success!

Thank you to Chairs Jane Golz (show), Penny Thompson (auction) and to all the LAA members who helped make this year's Spring Show and Silent Auction a HUGE SUCCESS! The Palmetto ballroom was filled all night with artists and art appreciators, and nearly $1600 was raised to support Art In Education in Savannah! (Special thanks to Carol Nickels for her donation of Jo Gabeler's watercolor and to Jim Guerard for donating back his winnings from his show award in Photography!)
