i am concerned about there already being quite a few things to talk in january (postcards, promotion, adam burton). i think the 10 year stuff may be worth talking about at the next meeting in feb when we talk about submissions, which it fits in better with. what do other people think?

mirja to talk about postcards to sell from previous show in gallery.
it is worth noting here that the shop is changing to become a hair salon and massage corner, they will only have a few things for sale in the corner, may be worth talking to magda or alex first about this.

the gallery is nearly booked for the year already cornelia so if you and the group want to put a proposal in i would do it before the meeting in feb when we are looking at proposals. it would be good to be involved and show some of tk has been doing in that time i think.
