Arlene Szypulski
Treasurer
Arlene joined SRAL in Dec 2016, just one week after moving from Colorado. She said it was the joy of living among and learning from other artist that drew her to the area.
In 2018 Arlene accepted the SRAL position of 2nd VP. The primary focus was to manage the artist demonstrations for the monthly general meetings. Along the way, Arlene broadened her participation in SRAL by chairing the Southwest Show and serving as chairperson for the reception food at The Annual Members Juried Shows. Yes, she likes to cook too!
“I believe the arts contribute immensely to making a healthy vibrant community and I am proud to be a partner in making that possible.”
