1991 Was A Very Good Year

30 years ago we were in our 8th year as an organization. We were growing in number and feeling anything was possible.

The Board of Directors included Vic Picou as President, Marie Carp as Treasurer, Bill Dilley and Everett DuPen. In April Marie Carp passed away. In May, Rich Hestekind, Michael Link, and Meredith Earls were added.

Dues were raised from $15 to $20. Our “Stone Source Directory”, compiled and edited by Karen Murphy, was reprinted and for sale for $7.00. The newsletter was renamed “Sculpture NorthWest” and moves from 4 pages to 6. Molly Greist and Anastasia Miller are the 1st featured artists. Discussion begins for the creation of a “Sculpture Center” for workshops, classes, exhibits, library/archives, and workspace.

NWSSA sanctioned and supported a variety of activities for members:
3rd Northwest Flower and Garden Show exhibit at the Seattle Convention Center, WA
1st Members only show at Sunflower Garden Center, Seattle WA
2nd Members show at The Sweetbriar Nursery, Woodinville, WA
The Fremont Show for members at Fremont Fine Arts Gallery, Seattle, WA
