For everyone on Orchid

who has felt disenfranchised by SNAG’s seeming lack of support for
artists working in metal,

who vehemently complained about the last EiP (including the cover
piece, created by one of the candidates for the Nominations and
Elections Committee),

who has spoken out against “artspeak” in Metalsmith magazine,

who has complained that SNAG only seems to support academics in the
field and not artists supporting themselves selling their art

it’s time to put clothes back on the proverbial emperor because
we’ve all been pointing out that he’s been naked too long!!!

There are many people involved in SNAG (including board members) who
seek to make it a better organization for us all. They need your
help! It’s easy to complain about an organization, but it’s another
to help it become better. Step up and offer some choices for change,
fellow Orchidians. This is your chance!
