The Colors of Shelby – Volunteer Sign up & Promo Materials!

Hi Chestnuts –

We are getting excited for The Colors of Shelby Art Show & Sale, Oct 31 – Nov 3rd!

We have 2 important items for you in this announcement.

  1. Volunteer Sign up Genius
    We appreciate the time and energy it takes to put on a show and are grateful to have so many dedicated members. We encourage everyone to try and cover a shift if they are available. It’s a great way to meet other members, learn about show operations and share in the excitement of being a Chestnut Group member. We couldn’t do it without you. SIGN UP HERE!
  2. Customizable Template for promoting your work and the show.
    The customizable shell is ready to promote the show with your own work. This art is available here as a jpg for download and you can personalize and print, email or post to social media. There are a lot of ways to make this happen and if you regularly use Adobe Photoshop, InDesign, Illustrator, or Acrobat, you will probably be able to do this on your own. If not, I’m happy to help. Just send the image(s) and the message or info you want included to Ellen at epbibb@me.com. And remember—keep sending in those promo images (epbibb@me.com). Save them as a jpeg and name them with your name and the painting title.

Example: ReneeBates_CorneliaFortWetland.jpg.
