Help Support the Member’s Show Open Dates at Cider Gallery
Volunteers are Needed At Cider Gallery!
Cider Gallery is short staffed and only open 1-5 pm on Fridays and by appointment. In order for the gallery to be open to the public more than just one day a week during our All Members’ Show, Maria offered for Guild Member volunteers to be at the Gallery on Wednesdays and Thursdays from 1 to 5 pm. Maria will be on the schedule one day a week during the 6 weeks the Guild’s show is open.
We can have one person a day or two people together - ask a member friend to join you! The tasks are simple - greet visitors and tell them about the Guild and the All Members Show. Cider Gallery has offices upstairs and are available to assist, and will be there to unlock and lock the gallery. Volunteers are needed these Wednesday and Thursdays, from 1 pm to 5 pm:
December 4 and 5
December 11 and 12
December 18 and 19
January 8 and 9
January 15 and 16
January 22 and 23
Email Maria to let her know days you can volunteer, at office@lawrenceartguild.org
