The Second Artists’ Workshop 33rd Anniversary Celebration

The Springs Nov. 2013 Cover.

By David Rose
Arkansas is a national leader in solar snow removal. For the most part, we just leave it there until it melts. All in all, a very civilized way to handle such events. Just as snowplows in the north sometimes break down, our system has its occasional failings as well. One time we had a foot of snow followed by a prolonged cold spell. Everything stopped.

After three or four days, I bundled up and trudged down to the post office. The clerk went into the back room and returned with a stack of mail that was equivalent to what I would get in a month. When I remarked on the quantity, she said it was the mail for some of my neighbors as well and asked if I could put it in their mailboxes on my way back.

“Don’t y’all have some kind of motto?” I asked. “Rain, heat, gloom of night. Isn’t snow mentioned in there someplace?” “You must be thinking about UPS,” she replied. A very civilized system indeed.

We at the Artists’ Workshop Gallery are nothing if not civilized, so when it snowed on the first Friday of January, we thought it wise to postpone our anniversary celebration. It will be held instead on Fri., Feb. 2. Join us for Gallery Walk at 610A Central Avenue, from 5-9 PM. 20% off all art during Gallery Walk. Champagne toast at 6. Our featured miniature artists are June Lamoureux and Pati Trippel. Lakeside – featured high school artists. Charlie Mink will provide the musical score.
