Dear Friends of McLean Textile Gallery,

As I reflect on the year that’s drawing to a close, I am grateful for all the visitors and artists who helped to make the gallery what it is today.  Through resilience and determination, I look forward to 2022 with excitement, hope, and exuberance. 

I see 2022 as filled with opportunities: to continue to refine the expansion of the gallery into three beautiful rooms, including a large space well suited to programming, lectures, events, and meetings.  We continue to think of innovative ways to integrate the gallery into the McLean community and surrounding areas, as well as ways to reach national audiences through social media and video tours.  

We are thrilled to have the Virginia Quilt Museum, Caryl Breyer Fallert, and other well-known national artists lined up for the new year.  I also look forward to a monthly “Textiles and Tea” afternoon, where visitors will listen to an artist speaker or textile expert while enjoying some tea and social time surrounded by art.

I would be honored if you played a role in our success, as we are a non-profit 501(c)(3) and take no commission from artist sales. That’s why I ask that you consider a tax-deductible year-end gift now, one that will propel the gallery into the new year and equip it with the energy, staff, and resources required for an expanded operation.
    

In closing, I’d like to say thank you for your support and friendship - it means the world to me, and I can’t wait to see what we can do together in 2022.  With joy in my heart, I hope to hear from you.
 
Sincerely,   

Nancy
