Conference 2021 Latest Details
The countdown has started! In just days we will be meeting (masked and vaccinated) on Thursday, Oct. 14th at the SAQA Oregon Regional Conference in Sisters!
If your plans allow for an extra day in Sisters you will find attached a self-directed studio tour from 1 - 3 p.m. on Wednesday, Oct. 13th. A list of area galleries is attached if you have more time.
On conference day, Thursday, Oct. 14th, the doors of Five Pine Lodge will open at 8 a.m., allowing time for visiting, coffee/tea and munchies, and a first in-person look at the fabulous 12 by 12s offered for sale before the program begins at 9:30 a.m.
Conference activities will conclude at 4:15 - but why should the fun stop then?
There is still time to join your SAQA friends for dinner and conversation at one of five Sisters/Bend restaurants where a local SAQA member will act as host (each person responsible for their own check).
BUT - reservations are filling fast and must be made by Oct. 7.
We will be making “SAQA Friends” reservations for no more than 6 at each restaurant, so please make your preference known via
marthapsanders@gmail.com by Thursday, Oct. 7.
Restaurant choice will be on a first-come, first-served basis. We will confirm your restaurant choice and give directions to the restaurant. On conference day maps will be available and introductions to your local host. If you prefer to make your own dining plans, the restaurant list will give you some possibilities. Reservations are advised.
As always, feel free to reach out to me with questions or concerns,
Jan Tetzlaff, Conference Chair
