Upcoming Newsletter Deadlines:
January 26th
February 23rd

******************************************
Our website address has long been
http://lsagtx.weebly.com/
for a number of years.
But we were paying for a re-direct for those members who had not made the adjustment.
Since a simple Googling of Lone Star Art Guild or the former address sends you to the correct address at no cost, we are no longer having the added expense of paying for this.
Again, while the former address of lonestarartguild.org no longer re-directs you here,
if you were to put it in Google, you will see our correct website address comes up.
Please make a note of it.
Note that the address for the database is not affected.
************************************************************************************
Local League Updates will be taken next in February.
Please submit the name of the person, phone number, & email address for
THESE 6 positions ONLY:

IMPORTANT Notes:
Communicating UPDATES About Your SHOW
Your Show on this WEBSITE:
If you have not done so already, be sure to send in
your league, show date, & judge to
lsagconnect@gmail.com.
If you do not have a confirmed judge, put TBA until that is known, and then send an update.
It is important for everyone to submit your date as soon as you have your venue confirmed.
Updates on the website's show calendar begin in the summer for the upcoming art year and run continuously.
Your Show in the DATABASE:
Each LEAGUE show chair or database manager is responsible for listing their
LSAG sanctioned show in the database. Other shows may not be listed.
Listings should include the name of the judge.
Your Show Advertised in the NEWSLETTER:
Announcements with details about your show & other league events should go to
lsagannouncements@gmail.com

LSAG sanctioned shows are OPEN shows, and as such, should be advertised to all area leagues.
Healthiest clubs invite the community to also participate with the prospect they will become members of your organization.
