March 2021 Virtual Meeting-The Business of Art
Our new HAS President will present a discussion about the ‘business of artists (and crafts) members’ in this COVID-19 era as it continues to be a significant part of our daily lives.
In Ron’s words “The subject of the artist as an entrepreneur appealed to me because of the sale success of HAS’
first online/virtual Fall-Holiday 2020 art show…”
Wednesday March 10 @ 7:00 PM
