Art Education
Center
Guide for Rental Use
A major
goal of the Island Art Association is to sponsor art and craft
education classes, workshops and seminars by qualified artisans.
The new Art Education Center was established in order to facilitate
art education in the community. The Center may also be rented for
other meetings, activities and functions.
The
following provides information, guidance and
an application for potential instructors.
The Art
Education Center (AEC) Committee will require a rental agreement,
advise you in getting started and provide advertising assistance as
follows:

Monthly e-blasts are
published to IAA Patrons (600 plus). You should provide a jpeg
image for the advertisement. The image can also be used in
other publications.
