But she currently is extending Memberships for subscription holders without being asked.

Of this new venture, Evan believes “AAI is a perfect fit, bringing a deep bench of artists and experience to continue operating the Court- yard Gallery in tandem with a raft of other activities supporting arts around the Hill.” AAI is the force behind the painted deer community art project currently being expanded. It also supports art education and plans many youth art-related projects at Michèle the gallery.

People may drop by and share their ideas. Also, the AAI board will use the Courtyard Gallery as a focal point to fulfill its mission to make Idyllwild an art destination. In motion are plans for new events to be held there, such as a Mother and Daughter Afternoon Tea and Textile Fabric Creation on May 6.
