We're all living in a difficult economy not only as individuals, but as companies and non-profit organizations. As a 50lc3 non-profit organization, it is so very important that we continue to maintain a stable footing to keep the AI&G secure in the future. Your membership helps us to do that and is vital to our existence.

The new AI&G membership year began January 1st so if you are new to the area or the AI&G or have not renewed your membership now is a great time to do so.

Effective January 12, 2009, the AI&G will offer a 10% discount for AI&G Members on any Gallery Art sold at Gallery and Foyer Gallery Exhibitions. This discount can create a substantial savings for art purchasers but does not affect the commission paid to artists. We offer this as a thank you to members and as an effort to help stimulate sales of art works for artists on Delmarva.

With Valentines Day right around the corner, or for that special day, birthday, holiday or "nothing special" day, a membership to the AI&G that also offers a 10% discount in the Martha Gue' AI&G Gallery Shop is a great gift. Most of all, you will be working to keep the arts alive in the community and in your own life.

For more information on Membership or the Art Institute & Gallery, call 410-546-4748. The AI&G is non-profit 50lc3 organization whose mission is to offer quality art education to children and adults and to further the visual arts through exhibitions in the community.
