The Georgia Piedmont Arts Center(GPAC) of Winder, Ga., announces the recent election of Kathleen Gill as their new President.

Gill takes the helm at a time of transition for GPAC.

“I’m looking forward to growing the services and classes already offered by GPAC,” Gill said. “We are also actively looking for a new permanent home for the group."

The group recently moved to a temporary space in Winder where they offer adult classes in sculpture, pottery and painting on an ongoing basis.  Additionally, they offer stained glass, jewelry making, and other specialized and unique learning opportunities through their visiting artist workshop programs.

GPAC is well known in the community for the children’s Summer Camp as well as children’s classes throughout the year.  " Target recently awarded the group a generous grant which enables them to start an expanded Saturday children’s art class", Gill noted.

GPAC is located at 88 Griffith Street, Winder, GA 30680.  For more information regarding upcoming events and classes, please visit their web site (http://www.GeorgiaPiedmontArtsCenter.com) or for information, call 770-354-8874.
