A Message from the NCAGG President

On behalf of the board of directors of NCAGG I welcome you to our new website. The year 2008 marks 30 years of our guild's presence in the cultural scene in our area. We look forward to another busy and productive year, to our art shows and community outreach efforts, to our meetings and social events.

This year our guild is proud to announce four art shows for our members, three at local galleries, the Arts Afire Gallery, the Rossdhu Gallery, and the American Craftworks Collection Gallery, and one at Annmarie Garden, a Smithsonian Institution affiliated arts center. As part of our outreach efforts we will also present our Glass Arts Festival at the Lorton Arts Center and participate in the Festival of Building Arts at the National Building Museum.

We invite you to enjoy the diverse creativity of our members and we look forward to seeing you in one of our events.

Nadine Beth Schneider
President, NCAGG
