Dear Ch/Art Members,

The yard signs are up! The posters are (slowly) making their way out of the bin on my front step and into the community! The markets are almost upon us! 

We need everyone's help these next two weeks! Let's make one big last push to ensure this is the best Art Walk yet! 

Here's how:

Dear Ch/Art Members,

Thanks to all who have signed up to help with Art Walk promotion and postering, and are actively promoting the event on social media! 

Open Studio Experts Panel: For those who missed the wonderful advice provided by the panelists at our Sept monthly meeting, click here to access the zoom recording: https://www.chevychaseart.org/zoom-recordings We will also provide a summary and recap some of the highlights at the upcoming Art Walk mtg on Tuesday, Sept. 29. 

Art Walk hosts: Do you want a student volunteer? 

If YES, please complete this form: Request a Student Volunteer

Hi All!

Art Walk is less than a month away, and we need your help to make this a record-breaking event.  If everyone helps out with one or more of the methods below, it helps the whole organization and its members.

SOCIAL MEDIA:

Please share, like, repost, tag, and collaborate Art Walk information.  The more engagements the posts have, the farther they reach.

Dear Art Walk participants,

Just one month to go!  Tom and I finished delivering Art Walk materials to each host who submitted a form requesting delivery this afternoon. Please continue reading for more info about supplies, volunteering, and save the date for our final AW zoom meeting on Tuesday, Sept 29 @7pm.

What's in the host bags? How do I use the supplies?

Inside each host bag are materials for hosts and participating artists as well as a printed set of instructions. I've attached those instructions to this email as well. As explained in the instructions, please hold off on placing your yard signs and posters until early October. 

Dear Art Walk HOSTS (this email does not apply to non-hosts),

Amazing how time flies! We now have an office packed full of Art Walk supplies and are ready to get them out to all of you!

Tom and I will be delivering "host bags" (including yard signs, stakes, posters, etc) to Art Walk locations on Friday, Sept 18 between 9am-5pm. 

We need each of you to complete this form by September 16 in order to arrange delivery or pick-up of your materials: Art Walk Supply Delivery Form

Ch/Art Art Walk 2026

We know that displaying our artworks gets people looking. Small touches of engagement build authentic, personal connections that lead to greater community, opportunities, and sales. How can we spur folks to linger, grow curious, and interact with our art – and with us? Read on!

These ideas are here to inspire, not require. Choose any that resonate, and invent your own.

Meeting Notes — Art Walk Planning

• Art Walk preparation starts now! September is especially busy, so participants were encouraged to get organized earlier than usual.

• The member portal is now the central source of information. All Art Walk emails/materials will also be posted there, including the summer “getting ready” checklist.

• Hosts and artists should connect ASAP and work out logistics such as setup/takedown times, tent placement, access, overnight storage, and rain/weather contingencies.

Dear Ch/Art Members,

Zoom mtg: Tom and I are looking forward to seeing everyone at the Zoom on August 25 @7pm! I strongly encourage everyone to attend, but if you can't make it, we will record and post the discussion to the member portal. Use this link to RSVP https://evt.to/618h3hh4pxs0.
