First up, Renaye Johnson, who not only
serves as an officer and Recording Secretary of the Board, but also co-chairs
the Rotating Gallery with member Kim Lawson, serves on the Utility Box
committee, served as co-chair with Sharon Petersen of CAA's 2018 show and both
2019 shows. She was a part of the team that reviewed the pile of documents
required for CAA's application for 501(c)3 status. Renaye also volunteers for
pretty much any project that comes up including this week's art camp at
Monument Crisis Center. While doing all of this Renaye manages her time so that
she can create some amazing artwork.
And of course, no organization can
survive without a money person. Sharon Petersen is another officer of the Board
and Treasurer of the Association. Her job probably requires more detail than
any other on the Board as she manages the finances of CAA reliably and
efficiently. Sharon served as co-chair of both the 2018 San Ramon show and both
shows at aRt Cottage this year. Sharon also was a key player in the convoluted
process that enabled CAA to finally obtain 501(c)3 status. We would not have a
raffle at member meetings without Sharon...she totes items to the meetings and
manages the donations for tickets. Like Renaye, Sharon somehow manages to find
the hours to create beautiful art.
