Does anyone have a good recommendation for a carpet cleaning service?

Fall Open Studio Tour

I just got this from TPAC today:

Plans are underway now for the TPAC Open Studios Tour 2008 (OST 2008.) This year's Tour will be spearheaded by Karen Christensen from the TPAC Board, Luanne Withee, from TPAC staff and Angela Rose, artist (and previous TPAC Board Member.) Although these names are out in front, much work goes on behind the scenes by all TPAC staff, Board Members, sponsors, and participating artists to make OST one of the most successful city/county-wide events in Tucson.

For those of you, who are interested in adding your energy and ideas to OST 2008, please attend the steering committee meeting on Wednesday, May 14th at 4pm in the downtown offices of Lewis & Roca, One South Church, Suite 700. The main topics of discussion will be: 1) an increase in fees to cover rising costs, 2) possible venues for the preview exhibition, and 3) aiming for a national profile for Tour artists.

We'd like to get an approximate number for seating, so please RSVP to Angela Rose by 5/12 if you plan to attend, email: Angela@AngelaRose.org or telephone: 906-8708.

This will be the ONLY committee meeting for the 2008 Tour. All committee work is handled via email and telephone. This worked well last year, and seems to inspire more participation.



We'd talked about doing our own tour, but I'm wondering if this fall we shouldn't go for getting good Picture Rocks participation in the TPAC one, and have PRAG promotional materials at our individual studios.

What think thee?
