100% chance of snow

Dear Class,
I just got home from the adjudication of the annual juried exhibit and checked the weather forecast. It does not seem like we will be able to dodge or ignore the approaching storm. So we will postpone hanging the juried student show until Saturday beginning at 10. Thanks to everyone who has tried to rearranged work and family schedules. I do understand if you can not make it, but sincerely hope that some of you can.
Most of the non-selected works, except the large sculptures in the pit, are in the hallway outside of the gallery. First biz on Saturday will be to help move those, and clip tags. Then arrange and hang. Hope to see you then. With thanks.....
