Recently, I hastily wrote about my experience

with the Misosula Art Museum and the process and aftermath of submitting to their 2010 art auction.  My intention in writing was to criticize the coolness with which the museum notifies hopeful artists who are not chosen for the auction.  I should have stated that in a paragraph and called it good.

Instead, I allowed my disapointment at not being chosen to flavor my words, and for that I am sorry.

I know that the jury labored and deliberated passionately over the many submissions and it could be, had I been on the jury, that I would have made the same decisions that they did. Without having been there, I won’t know until February when the acution happens.

And I’m looking forward to it.

Missoula Art Museum serves the public by engaging audiences and artists in the exploration of contemporary art relevant to the community, state and region.
