Minutes from the 3/4/10 Meeting

Hey all! Here are the minutes for the meeting held on Thursday March 4th.....sorry it took me a few days to get this up. I also apologize if some of the information is incorrect or confusing....I was at the end of the table and couldn't hear a thing. Motion to have the secretary sit next to the President at the meetings???

First order of business: Honorary Club Member

The club came to a unanimous vote to grant John Medina as a honorary club member of Bandolier Press....we'll turn him into a printmaker sooner or later!

The portfolio is now due March 22nd. The Edition size is now 25 with John's participation. All other information remains the same.... 15"x20", minimum of 3 runs.

Third order of business: Club Money Distribution

The question of how money raised from fundraisers will be distributed to those not attending SGC as well as those who will be graduating this semester.
The club came to the conclusion that
those who are not attending SGC, the money will go to the next conference. (MAPC, Frogmans Workshop, etc.) If the club member chooses not to attend, the money will get filtered back into the club money.
For those graduating this semester, the club will only distribute money for conferences for one semester only following graduation.

Minutes from the 1/28/10 Meeting

Hey all, Jessica here (AKA secretary). I will now be posting the minutes of each meeting here on the blog so those who were unable to make it can catch up on what went down.....minus the jokes and silly stuff, for those you had to be there sorry.

I digress......

Here's what we covered at the meeting:

(NEXT MEETING: Thursday Feb. 11th @ 8PM @ Twin Tavern!!!)

-First order of business: The Portfolio Exchange (Due March 15th!)

The title was voted upon, finally, with the winner going to "No Name, No Slogan."

Close runner ups were "Filthy Few" (or "Flithy Flew"?), Kish Incident, and sadly coming in dead last "J.D. Salinger is Dead"....sorry, Ann.

-Second order of business: Silent Auction

We need one print/piece of art from every club member for the auction by Monday Feb. 1st. Please drop these off in Kyle's flat file or in the Grad Office.

Kyle will be hanging the work up for the auction on the 2nd floor of the SOA on Monday Feb. 1st and will be up through Valentines Day.

-Third order of business: Club Dues $$

PAY THEM! We will be using this money to order t-shirts to print on and take with us to SGC in March as well as club aprons.

As far as the t-shirts go, we encourage everyone to submit designs to the club and we will vote on the top 5 to print and take with us. Can be screen printed or relief blocks.

As far as aprons go, we are still looking for some good deals on some Takach-like ones (cross-back style).

-Fourth order of business: Print Sale

Originally we had talked about holding the sale 2 weeks after SGC, but it was brought up that doing it before would be beneficial to all money-wise.

It will be changed to run 3 days long, Tuesday March 16th-Thursday March 18th with the added bonus of giving people the option to stop by the shop on Friday to continue purchasing. I will be working Fridays in the shop and would be happy to take on this responsibility.

- Fifth order of business: Change in Bandolier Press' Constitution

The position of Student President was voted in as an additional officer. Kyle was officially voted in as Student President.

The position of Sargent of Arms is now open and the position will be filled next meeting by the vote of the club.

-Additional orders of business:

We need a club logo! So we encourage everyone to submit a design that is high contrast, in black and white and that is resizable for use on t-shirts and/or patches.

The idea for a U-Haul Show outside of The House (just a suggestion) was brought up. Bringing cheap prints to the streets for all to buy or at least see! This would most likely take place next semester.

Possibility of a club show of large scale (6ft. x 4ft.) collaborative works was brought up. This would take place this summer and then hopefully the works would be displayed in 214 Gallery in the Fall.
