2010 Silver Anniversary Calendar

 

The MACK is proud to announce the infamous calendar project has hit the presses.   A handful of the most involved participants in the programs and events at the MACK have created an exciting spin on the traditional calendar posing as there own version of a monthly masterpiece.  Each portrait is stunning and unique many thanks to the unimaginable talent of our photographer Anna Reed and her Nanny Goat Photography.  The women involved deserve an ovation for their courage, tenacity and determination to follow through with this particularly sensational project.

 The MACK is proud to be represented by such a bold, brave and beautiful group of women. We ask for your support and pride as we have dared to expose a level of dedication never before seen in our community.  Calendars will be sold for an unarguably fair price of $10, all proceeds to support the MACK and its future civic and artistic endeavors.  You may purchase your calendar at the MACK Gallery Shop or the MACK Business Office.
