Hello, everyone. This is Muffet Jones, Anne Reed Gallery's new director. I joined the staff last summer and shortly thereafter Barbi asked me to take on the position of Gallery Director which I was delighted to do. We have had an amazing few months - record snowfalls in the West have made it a banner year for guests to our area - and our blog has fallen behind in all the (very nice) furor. But now we're on the cusp of Spring and have a little time to catch our breath. This means that I will try to shoulder some of Barbi's burden on the ARG blog as well as in the gallery.
Helping me with this and other tasks will be the newest members of our team, Deb Gelet and Mary Corrock. Deb comes to us with invaluable experience both in gallery management and in public relations. She has been a successful freelance writer and magazine editor, and continues to write for many of the best Western art and design publications. Look for her cover article on the famous Sturdivant Garden of the Sun Valley area in the Spring edition of Western Art and Architecture. Mary began her arts career in 1979 working for the King County Arts Commission in Seattle which initiated the first "Percent for Art" program in the country. In Ketchum she has worked for the Sun Valley Center for the Arts and has brought her awesome organizational skills to bear on events like the Sun Valley Wine Auction and other important community happenings. With Jennie Buehler doing a fantastic job as registrar and Jorge Otzoy continuing as our wonderful art handler and facility manager, our team is ready to make 2008 the best yet for Anne Reed Gallery, our artists, clients and community!
Check back with us often - there will be fresh news on the art front from our outpost here in the mountains and from all over the world!
