Dear friends,

Bradley Fox, founding member of East Johnson Plein Air Club, and our very good friend, died unexpectedly last weekend (some time during weekend of October 16/17 as far as I know.) There will be a memorial service on Friday, October 29th. I am unsure of location and time, and I will make sure to post this information as soon as I find out.

I met with Dorhn and Deb this morning so we could talk about our loss, and also to discuss the future of the Plein Air Club. We wanted to share that each of us had had long conversations with Bradley the week before his death, where we had been throwing around ideas for making plans for the upcoming winter:
1. Bradley and I talked about moving the Plein Air Club to large, public indoor spaces for the winter (so not exactly plein air... but ..). We talked about taking trips to airports, malls, the large spaces of colleges, like Johnson State college's library and swimming pool, etc. We also discussed our neglecting this blog, and how we really needed to update!
2. Bradley and Dorhn had also discussed starting up a Salon type of meeting once a month or every other month, where we can gather, have group critique and snacks and good company. This would take place at people's homes.
3. Bradley and Deb had talked about taking Plein Air Club trip to Montreal for inspiration!

We are interested in all these things. Bradley really was the energy behind the Plein Air Club. I hope we can keep the energy going.

I hope to hear from you or see you at Bradley's service on Friday.

Sincerely,
Marcie Vallette
