40th Anniversary of the Sun Valley Center for the Arts It’s true! We are entering our 40th year of bringing arts to the Wood River Valley community. Keep your eyes open for events celebrating the anniversary.
30th Anniversary of the Sun Valley Center Wine Auction—July 21–23, 2011 Can you believe it? What started as friends in a Sun Valley backyard buying wines from other friends, who then turned the wine back in so next summer it could be sold again, has become a nationally ranked Wine Auction that provides The Center with over 50% of its annual budget.
3rd Annual Open Exhibition at the Sun Valley Center for the Arts in Hailey—this summer BIKES! Our summer exhibition is Geared: The Culture of Bicycles and we’ll have a call for artwork made on, about and of bikes! Start making work now!
Changes Ahead! This Is it In the interest of the environment and resources, this is the last newsletter you’ll receive in this format. We are going to an online and emailed version of our newsletter / calendar. It will still come out three times a year and will be chock full of information about all our upcoming programs, but we won’t print and mail over 1,500 every time!
To make sure you stay up to date on what The Center is doing—you’ve got a few choices. You may sign up for one or all of our emails. We have added an email list for those who would like to only receive the newsletter three times a year—but not the weekly email. Those who are already on our “Hot Dates” eNewsletter list will also receive the emailed version of the newsletter. So if you’re on that list, you’re good to go. If you don’t currently receive emails from us, please consider going on-line to our website now and signing up. If you have any questions, as always, please give us a call at 208.726.9491.
