The Maitland Art Center’s Board of Trustees events committee is busy putting together a bundle of tantalizing choices for the 2008-2009 “Dining with an Artist” series.  Guests spend an evening or an afternoon at various homes or studios in company with artists and fellow art-lovers and share food, drink and good conversation.  The committee is presenting up to 7 events for the season, each costing $100. Proceeds go to MAC’s Acquisition Fund. Among the choices so far:

Saturday, January 10, 2009 – Creative photographer, Shelley Lake invites you to her new studio /gallery in Winter Park.

Saturday, February 7, 2009 - Well-known Tampa glass artist Duncan McClellan will host an evening in his roomy studio.  Those who sign up will have the option of driving over or taking a bus.  Additional bus transportation fees will be based on the number of registrations.

Saturday, February 28 - MAC Board of Trustee member Alison Horne and her business partner, Rita Canan, will open their studio for a Asian inspired gathering.
