Killington Arts Guild is a creative community for the arts. Our
Gallery, website, programs and workshops are open to everyone. The
best way to get to know us is to visit our Gallery at Cabin Fever
Gifts where a new show, "Spring into Summer" is displayed
daily and to view the Guild's website. The website's "Gallery" page
opens with artwork by Jerry Leblond showing what the real Gallery
is like from the outside.
Susan Wacker-Donle, KAG webmaster says of the website, " I wish to
emphasize that this is the membership's home for information on our
events and activities but it is also a place where they can promote
their own work and accomplishments." The new "Guild Members
Gallery" page with bios and photos of members and the "Guild
Members Announcements" page, which focuses on their achievements,
are particularly important.
Recently, Susan developed a workshop and slideshow to help
members create their own free website using Google. Participants
arrived early at the Gallery. The room had been darkened for the
occasion. Susan walked through the process of setting up a website
- step by step. If someone didn't understand she went over
the material again. If the questions were too advanced she said,
"That's for another workshop." Participants stayed for a three hour
presentation, ate lunches they had brought, had a wrap-up session,
lingered to ask questions and left with a CD of the presentation.
Participants were members except Janice Greenwood. She wanted a
website to promote her children's book. Gerry Russell needed to
explore a new website for another association, Paedra Bramhall has
a friend managing her website and would like to do it herself
and Lynn Fondulas had been frustrated by attempts to
set-up a site by herself. Barbara McKenna, a
craftsmaker, Betty Little a writer, Alice Sciore, artist and
sculptor wanted a website market art. All were pleased with
the day's workshop and Janice joined the Killington Arts
Guild.
