And more from Terri:

While I’m here, I might as well make the plug for the silent auction at  Polydelphia! 2007.  We’ve received many generous donations from all over the country of tools, books, and finished pieces, but I’m also looking for donations from YOU, if you can.  While it is nice to have pieces from artists with a national reputation, I’m really looking forward to the opportunity to showcase our homegrown talent.  It’s been great, over the past couple of years, to watch the skills and talent grow within our membership, to see some of us go from hobbyists to saleable artists, to authors, to national finalists.  If you haven’t already committed to donating something and would like to, please email me at polydelphia@papcg.org.
