| Artists of the Month Winner Ria Russo |

| The Jefferson Art Guild was started in 1996 with the idea of its founders to have an open guild that anyone could join -- no sponsors necessary. The only membership requirement is a desire to have fun as an artist. We are open to new ideas, new adventures, and thanks to the wisdom of our charter members, conduct ourselves by very simple and liberal bylaws so as not to be inhibited by convention nor burdened by stringent unbendable rules and regulations. JAG prides itself on the sharing, caring attitude of its members and the wonderful friendships that have evolved as a result of its existence. Continuing education and exposure to various art forms are afforded members through demonstrations at monthly meetings as well as guild sponsored workshops. JAG has touched many lives and hopefully will be the source of inspiration and encouragement for emerging artists for years to come. |
