We are feeling a loss in our community. Recently I have written about Second Story Cards. Annie Greene, a member of the company, has recently left and will be missed. She worked with Reed Sandridge to assist in creating the cards and stickers which are asked by the artist to contribute to its making. Please remember that they are dependent upon the support of the community, and sold in 30-plus states. Thank you Annie for being part of our family.
Also, I am a part of Daybreak Arts. We have been informed that Emily Wertheim will be leaving after seven years of working side by side with artists and the community. She has been an invaluable member who has contacted businesses for displaying art for sale, cataloged and photographed art for artists, and showed her love and support by contacting individual artists on a personal level. She worked with the Frist Art Museum, and sold her art in shows throughout the United States. She is going to be taking an opportunity to move up to building a new way of creating works of art. From family members of the artist community who have grown to know you, we wish you happiness and success.
Please remember that 80 percent of proceeds from sale of art goes to the artists at Daybreak Arts. Artists at Second Story Cards receive the benefit of purchases of cards and stickers. Thank you to our community family, and the Contributor Newspaper for giving us a voice offered by the First Amendment.
