Rick Unger

It is with sadness that I write the news that one of our artists has passed away.  Rick Unger recently lost a battle to liver cancer.  Mr. Unger was a featured artist of the Art Tours in years past, and he will be sorely missed by the art community.  To read his obituary in the Hi-Desert Star, click here.  (Thanks to Rik Livingstone for the art.)

Art Tours Applications have been rolling in!  If you missed the main deadline of April 6th, it is not too late to turn in an application.  A late fee of $25.00 will be added to your application fee.  Please don't wait any longer.  If you would like to be a part of this year's Hwy 62 Art Tours, download the application, fill it out, and get it sent in.  You have until May 4th.  You can mail your application in to MBCAC PO Box 643, Joshua Tree, CA  92252, or you can drop it off in person at our Donation=Creation Store.  The store is located at 61325 Hwy 62, Suite F.  Our store is all volunteer run, so I do recommend calling before you head out.  760-366-2226.

We will be needing volunteers to help process the applications, and if you are interested in helping with this task, please email Karine at arttours@mbcac.org.  Thank you!
