Message From Executive Director: Janice Sands

To All Pen and Brush Participating Artists, Donors and Art Enthusiasts:
You are invited to become part of our 118th year of dedicated support for women artists, writers, musicians, composers and filmmakers.  There are several ways you can help:
 
>  Become an Artist Donor Member.  If you are a woman artist who has participated in our activities, but who hasn't yet become an Artist Donor Member, think about doing so now.  It's $75 for 12 months and you'll get a discount every time you enter your work in a contest or exhibition.
--- or ---
> Renew your Artist Donor Membership.  If your Artist Donor Membership has lapsed, or you just received your annual renewal notice, now is the perfect time to make your Artist Donor membership contribution of $75. 
--- or ---
> Become a Donor Member. If you think it's important for women artists to have a place where their work can be presented to the public, to have an organization advocating for women to have equal opportunities for careers in the arts, and for their work to achieve equal value in the marketplace, support The Pen and Brush with a Donor Membership contribution. Open to everyone, it's $75 for annual Donor membership.

> Make a Contribution of Any Amount. If you've attended our openings and events, signed up for our mailing and email announcements because you'd like to know what we're doing, or even if you've made a donation before, consider an additional end-of-year contribution that will help us provide opportunities year-around and keep that information coming to you.
---- or ---
> Celebrate 118 Years.  if you really feel strongly that The Pen and Brush should continue to provide opportunities for women in the arts, we'd like you to consider donating $118. That's $1 for every year we've been working to bring art by women to the public and collectors.  You'll automatically become a Donor Member.
