From the President:

Welcome to the WAM Contemporaries Homepage!

In February 2011, WAMC hosted ONYX, another successful evening of fun, friends and art which helped raise money for our newest adventure for WAM!

Destination:WAM! 

This latest project shifts the focus to the next generation of museum-goers by sponsoring field trips to WAM throughout the school year.  To date, we have donated over $10,000 to the project and hope it brings over 30 classrooms to the museum.  Our wonderful education department will then lead the students on an adventure through the museum with gallery tours, scavenger hunts, art history chats and much more.  Contact Andrea Keppers, 268-4907 for more information.

It takes a team of dedicated volunteers to make these exciting adventures happen.   So, I would like to recognize our board and committee members for their dedication to WAM and our mission.

Board:  Megan Young Workman (WAMC Chair) Genevieve Gordon, Lacey Vess-Vliet, Michal Emory, Rachel Landua, Jan Saggerson, Brandon Robinson

WAMC Committee:  Ashley Bowen-Cook, Conni Mansaw, Kathy Sweeney, Tricia Weimar, Lindsay Pestinger, Ashleigh Weber, Jennifer Regan, Amy Herd, Ryan Root, Tiffany Farha
