YAC is one of our communities biggest art supporters. They are relentless in
creating opportunities for us a guild, as individual artists, and for
the community of art in general.
Upcoming
is the ornament auction. Please make and contribute an ornament to
them. With the donation of an ornament, you will receive a one year YAC
membership and two tickets to the ornament auction which will be held
on Thursday, December 12. The auction is a lot of fun!
Some
ornaments will be featured in the Invitation. To be in this, your
ornament must be turned in on/by November 11. It is advisable to wrap
your ornament and put it in a container (especially if it is fragile).
The final deadline is December 5. You may drop off your ornament at the
Power House between 9 and 5, Monday through Friday.
Also,
there is a contest in which YAC could win a "Van-go" - literally an art
van. This will not cost any money and you don't have to donate. You
just have to vote.
There
is a specific day in which you vote. If you vote on the wrong day, you
vote for someone else. Please ask everyone you know to vote. They
win, we all win.
Here is some specific information:
On November 15th, the Yoknapatawpha Arts Council needs your vote on 100CarsforGood.com sponsored by Toyota. On Friday November 15th
the YAC will try to collect the most votes in order to win a dedicated mobile arts education vehicle that will allow us to
take arts education programs and classes into the communities and
neighborhoods who need them the most. The organization with the most
votes everyday wins a 2014 Toyota vehicle of our choice- in our case a
"Van-Go".
Help us build this program by voting on the website 100CarsForGood.com
. You can go to this site and set a reminder for you to vote for the YAC on the
15th. You can also SHARE our message from this page and invite your
friends to vote as well.

program, or our outreach classes please feel free to email YAC or call
