Well I can finally say I have closed the book. I have given up pursuing the Arts Night Jurors names. I sent the Washington Pavilion a letter yesterday to the Executive Director Steve Hoffman, I also CC the following:

Randell Beck, Executive Editor, Argus Leader
Robert Morast, Link Editor, Argus Leader
David Merhib, Director, Washington Pavilion Visual Arts Center
Ronald M. Moquist, Chair, Board of Trustees, Washington Pavilion Management

I needed some finality to it. I will post the letter sometime tommorrow. But I can tell you this, I am disappointed not only that the Pavilion chose secrecy over respect but I am even more disappointed that our local newspaper defended their position (supposedly the Argus either has the names or was offered them and did not print them). I really don’t know who to believe, between all the people involved I think at least a few of them at the top are flat out lying.

Oh well, I tried my best, and I think I’m better artist for it.
