Beachwood Arts Council Annual Meeting
Free and Open to the Community
On Tuesday, June 7, the Beachwood Arts Council will hold its Annual Meeting at the Beachwood
Community Center, at 7 pm, and invites you to attend. The Beachwood Arts Council is a nonprofit,
501(c)(3) organization that has supported the arts in Northeast Ohio since 1964. At this meeting,
board members and officers will be sworn in by Mayor Merle S. Gorden.
"We've come a long way over the past year," said executive director Leah Gilbert. "Membership
has grown, the quality of our exhibits is excellent, workshops are well attended, and sponsorships
continue to increase."
BAC thanks the Beachwood community for its support. Whether you're a member, sponsor or
exhibitor, or have attended BAC shows and/or programs, your participation and support help BAC
better promote the arts in and around Beachwood.
Special thanks to the organization's dedicated board members who have been serving and
are on the slate to be voted in at BAC's upcoming meeting. These members are the organiza-
tion's foundation.
On Sunday, May 15, BAC will host a Wine Glass Painting Workshop from 1 4 pm at the Beach-
wood Community Center. Learn how to decorate wine glasses using the "one-stroke" painting
technique. The instructor, Barbara Brastoff, will teach participants to paint open rosebuds and leaves
on the glasses. Participants will create two wine glasses that may be used for drinking or to hold
tea-light candles, and no experience is necessary. The fee, which includes all materials, is $30 for BAC
members and $35 for non-members.
As a fundraiser, BAC continues to sell Art Cards,
designed by Beachwood residents. A 16-card variety
pack sells for $20 and makes a great gift for yourself
or someone else.
If you would like to join the Beachwood Arts
Council and be a supporter of the arts in Beach-
wood, please contact the executive director, Leah
Gilbert, at 216.246.7373. To register for the Wine Glass
Painting Workshop or to order Art Cards, please call
