WECOME TO MAC’s WEB SITE!
Monroeville Arts Council members welcome new and previous viewers to its site. Here’s a brief outline of what MAC is all about: Each year this all-volunteer organization presents a variety of fine art, musical and educational activities that are free and open to the public. These activities include an annual Art Show, a Pops Concert Series, children’s art show, special musical presentations, and presenting monetary awards to Gateway High School seniors and to CCAC Boyce Campus students.
You can learn more about the Art Show, Summer Pops Concerts, Kids’ and Teen’s Korner Art Show, Muse Letter and Student Awards by exploring the Web site’s menu and viewing the Photo Gallery.
To gain a working knowledge, you may want to attend a board meeting at the Monroeville Public Library. They are scheduled for the second Wednesdays of the month at 7 p.m. Come and meet the board members to find out what’s new. Of course, there’s no obligation expected.
You’ll find an application on this Web site that can be printed and mailed if you decide you want to join this community organization. Members are not obligated to attend any meetings or join committees. Your support will be welcome, whether you are an active participant or one that just enjoys getting MAC’s newsletters and discounts to art and musical events. Your joining will help when MAC applies for grants to support its activities and events. Inquires should be directed to the general number of 412-373-0277 or to the board’s e-mail addresses or their telephone numbers listed.
We hope you enjoy your visit.
MAC Board Meetings
The Monroeville Arts Council meets the second Wednesday of each month at 7 p.m. at the Monroeville Public Library. Members and the public are welcome to attend and join its officers and chairs to plan activities. The schedule for 2010 is:
January 13 July 14
February 10 August 11
March 10 September 8
April 14 October 13
May 12 November 10
The Monroeville Arts Council is searching for a few good men and women to achieve its goals of bringing visual and performing arts to the Monroeville area. The organization functions through the volunteer efforts of its officers, board members and members.
The vacancies on the board that need to be filled at this time are recording secretary, treasurer and member-at-large. The board meetings are held once a month for two hours at the Monroeville Public Library on the second Wednesday beginning at 7 p.m.
Can we count on you to volunteer your time and talent for just two hours a month for the meeting and another hour to fulfill your office duties? In doing so, you will be contributing so much to help the community enjoy summer concerts and two art shows, one for adult artists and another for talented children while making satisfying contacts with energetic and stimulating people. MAC board members are also excited about their newest activity: sponsoring a group called Jr. MAC whose focus is encouraging Gateway Senior High School students to participate in the arts.
Here’s an opportunity to become more active in the community and meet new people. Please call Marilyn Wempa and she will be glad to answer any questions you may have. We look forward to hearing from you, whether you want to volunteer for an active role or whether you would rather just be a member. Marilyn’s phone number is 412-373-7794.
President – Marilyn Wempa
Vice President – Peg Caine

Corresponding Secretary – Beverly Pollock
