The River to River Visual Arts Association invites anyone interested in promoting southernmost Illinois art to an open meeting on Tuesday, June 12 from 6:30 -8:00 p.m. at The Edition at 315, 315 Christian Chapel Rd., Anna.
The non-profit association was formed to advocate for the economic and cultural value of the region's artists and artisans. The group is planning to hold an art and fine crafts show, "Art at the Edition," during Union County Colorfest weekend Oct. 13 - 14, and is also exploring ways to help local artists benefit from southern Illinois tourism.
Input is welcome from both artists and non-artists. Civic leaders, businessmen and art patrons, as well as artists and artisans, are encouraged to attend.
