Art News from Patricia Ferguson
Gallery Exhibit
December 4, 2009 through February 2010

I am excited to announce that two pieces of my photography juried into a photo exhibit and sale at Stonehaven Gallery in Barren River Lake State Resort Park, Kentucky. The exhibit event is called "Celebrate the Wild!" and encompasses the Sandhill Crane Weekend and the visit by the Cincinnati Zoo's Raptor Ambassadors. The two pieces of photography that they accepted into the exhibit will hang there from December 4, 2009, to February 2010.

Stonehaven Art Gallery is located in the former gift shop in the Louie B. Nunn Lodge at Barren River State Resort Park.  The Gallery is located just opposite of the registration desk.

You Can Make a Difference in Macon County Students' Education!
Please take a look at these projects from Macon County teachers.  The teachers have described things they need in their classrooms in order to make it easier for their students to learn.  Donors from Macon County (and around the country, for that matter) have already funded projects in Central Elementary School and Macon County Jr. High!  It's easy to give.  Simply select the project that most interests you and give any amount you can.  Donors receive personal thank-you notes from the teachers and students.  It's a heart-warming feeling when you open the Donors Choose envelope and read these notes ... and realize that you have really made a difference.  Donations are tax deductible..

SHIFT Happens
The Macon County Three-Star Committee strongly recommends that school board members, school principals, school administrators, teachers, parents, students, and community leaders watch these fascinating videos on YouTube.  Each of the videos deals with the same general subject, but each video is slightly different, so we recommend that you watch both.
