Upstate New York Meeting - June 11, 2011


Twenty-nine members traveled from Buffalo, Syracuse and Ithaca as well as Rochester for a meeting of the New York State SAQA. We gathered at The Gate House Cafe in Rochester for a "getting to know you" meeting. The enthusiasm was palpable. Jeanne Simpson and Pat Pauly, new co-reps for SAQA New York, were hosts. Jeanne began the meeting with a brief overview of SAQA and outlined some of the areas that she and Pat hope to facilitate as reps. The meeting continued with a limited introduction by each of the participants, some who brought work to share. Following a lovely lunch, the group toured Booksmart Studio and the “Parallax / Views of Contemporary Quilt Artists” exhibit a short walk away. Viewing the Fiberarts International Exhibit at the Memorial Art Gallery concluded the event.
