The ZAPP™ partners and management team have formed a ZAPP™ Artist Advisory Committee. The purpose of the Committee is to ensure that the ZAPP™ project continues to be of service to artists, and that artists engaged in art-shows have a voice in the development of the ZAPP™ system.
Six artists have been invited to join the Committee. Each artist is a ZAPP™ user, possesses a strong knowledge of the profession, and is committed to the art show field. These artists will meet twice a year to discuss software updates, system usability, and professional development needs. The input of the Artist Advisory Committee will help shape the ZAPP™ system to serve artists well for many years to come. The ZAPP™ partners, management team, and staff look forward to working with this new committee.
The 2007 Artist Advisory Committee Members are:
Marvin Blackmore, Colorado, Ceramics
Michael Brown, Illinois, Photographer
Joe DeCamillis, Alabama, Mixed Media
Audrey Heller, California, Photographer
Kim Koch, Wisconsin, Jeweler
Sarah Rishel, Georgia, Printmaker
The ZAPP™ management is also pleased to announce that Missouri artist Deanna Henion has joined the ZAPP™ business committee. In that capacity, Ms. Henion will work with ZAPP™ business board members Beth Hoffman and Anthony Radich to oversee the business and long-term business-strategy aspects of the ZAPP™ project.
