After much thought, I have decided to retire at the
end of this year. Since I am very proud of how forARTSake has
been such an integral part of the arts community over the last 7
years, I am hopeful that forARTSake will be able to continue
on in some manner.
Any individuals or groups who might be interested in pursuing the
possibility of acquiring my business or being involved in some way
are welcome to stop in the shop anytime to discuss ideas with me.
The next few months will be busy ones at forARTSake. Please
stop in and share any thoughts you might have and take advantage of
our ongoing sales.
thanks, Bev
