This art workshop is co-sponsored by the Glendale Art Association and more information will be made available at a later date.
The March 12 meeting of Glendale Art Association welcomes artist Bryan Mahoney for a presentation titled:
For fun, for myself and for money!
Your art could be viewed in Bangladesh tomorrow. In fact, it might already be there!
The last 30 years have transformed the way in which artist market their art, and the way in which people consume it. These same factors have made artists out of people that never knew they had a talent lying dormant, just under the surface like a million colored paints covered by an old varnish.
Bryan Mahoney came to art much later in his life than he planned. He is a former journalist, having written for the LA Times, Glendale News-Press and Burbank Leader, among other publications. In the last three years he went from his first formal art lesson to designing commercial products and launching his own line of gifts and pop art.
In this interactive session he’ll show you how to take advantage of some simple modern tools to spread the word about your art. His attitude on art is infectious; by the end of his talk you’ll be itching to get back to the canvas, the clay, or the cow’s milk. Because yes, there is art in cheese, there is art in computer spreadsheets, there is art everywhere in life.

Established in 1906.
Library services in Glendale were first provided in 1906. The women of the Tuesday Afternoon Club, a social and philanthropic organization, raised money through a series of lectures to fund a library collection. The library opened in a renovated pool room at Third and E (Wilson and Everett) Streets with seventy books, soon supplemented by a State Traveling Library of fifty more, and served a population of 1,186.
In 1907, the City Trustees passed Ordinance 53 which established and supported a library which "...shall be forever free to the inhabitants and nonresident taxpayers of the City of Glendale..." The first year the library had 251 books, 165 registered patrons, and a budget of $248.88.
In 1913, a Carnegie grant of $12,500 made possible the construction of the main library at Kenwood and Fifth (Harvard Street). The building was completed and dedicated November 13, 1914.
