As Thanksgiving approaches, we pause each day to reflect with heartfelt warmth on the many blessings in our lives—our cherished family, dear friends, devoted association members, generous patrons, and—most especially—our loyal customers, whose support fills our hearts with gratitude year-round.

2025 Association Elections Results

Here's a revised version that's smoother, more professional, and engaging while preserving all the original meaning and warmth:

At the November 17 monthly meeting, and in full accordance with the Association’s By-Laws, members unanimously re-elected Sherwood as President and Gail as Vice-President for another two-year term.

These are far more than ceremonial positions; they demand extraordinary dedication, vision, and hands-on leadership—qualities both officers have consistently demonstrated.

During their first term, Sherwood and Gail guided the Association through a period of meaningful progress: strengthening our vital partnership with the Tanger Management Group, securing new venues for remote exhibitions, completing thoughtful renovations to the gallery space, and fostering a more unified and effective leadership team.

Looking ahead, Sherwood has outlined an ambitious vision: driving greater foot traffic through the gallery, attracting a new generation of younger artists, and deepening our ties with the surrounding community.

On behalf of the entire membership, we extend our heartfelt thanks to Sherwood and Gail for their unwavering commitment and wish them every success as they lead us into an exciting new chapter.

Friday Night Fun Time!

Another successful Tanger Tree Lighting event was held on November 7th just outside our gallery doors. Volunteers were on hand with wooden ornaments and colored markers for families to build their own holiday decorations. Hundreds showed up to visit Santa and then dropped in the Gallery to pick out their favorite ornament shape.
