These awards are earned by gaining points, sell- ing at games, attending meetings, and planning pro- grams. The winners are rewarded at the annual award meeting held at the Davenport Art Gallery in May. One hundred points entitles a member to receive a pin the first year, an art book the second year, and a special ring the third year. Members arc also given a chance to participate in the annual Fair at the Art Gallery and to act as hosts and hostesses at Gallery events. Mr. Paul Johnson is Art Club advisor.
