MEMBER NEWS


ANN MEANY IS IN THE SHOW "WHAT WE DON'T TALK ABOUT"

Phipps Galleries in Hudson, WI.

June 21 - July 28, 2019

Show participants: Ann Meany, Anne Kramer, Judith Rae, Katie Breumer, Laura Mayo, Linda Seebauer Hansen and Zulma Davila.    


This seven-women show will make you think and feel (maybe a bit uncomfortably) because it features works on topics we don't talk about.  It is filled with conversation starters that might be honest, sad, weird, poignant, political, and awkward.  


Check us out on Facebook – What we Don't Talk About Artist Reception

Or contact Ann Meany: meanhen@usfamily.net
