August Program

The August Meeting and Program will be jam packed and one you will not want to miss!

First, we will say “goodbye and thanks” to the outgoing Board members.  Then we will say “hello and welcome” to the Board Officers and Directors for the upcoming term who will then be installed.

The program will highlight the amazing talent of one of our very active GNC members, Joan Darflinger.  Joan is Master Painter, Instructor and Author.  During her career, Joan has not only taught thousands of aspiring students, but she was also one of the few TV artists to appear on PBS and cable stations throughout the U.S. for many years. She was one of the first artists to present the simple “How-To” painting shows airing weekly for millions of viewers. Joan has authored several art books, some of which are currently in circulation. She is an alum of the prestigious School of the Art Institute Chicago where she enrolled at the age of 17.

During the program, Joan will complete a landscape in oil before our very eyes!  While she is painting, Beverly Gilbert, our upcoming President, will narrate a slide show of Joan’s many travels to visit great works of art.  Diane Davis, our esteemed Treasurer, will provide comedic relief where she is in a Master Class of her own.

When the painting is completed, it will be auctioned off to the highest bidder in the audience.  The proceeds will all be donated to the Humane Society, Joan’s favorite charity.

This program will be a treat for all lovers of art, comedy and travel. See you there!
