IN MEMORIAM For Barbara Scruggs on Southside Arts Agenda

 

     The importance of Barbara Scruggs for the cultural renaissance of the Southern Crescent is indicated by the prominence given to an IN MEMORIAM for her in this week's issue of the Southside Arts Agenda online news service:

 

 

IN MEMORIAM BARBARA SCRUGGS   Along with our friends in Grantville, we mourn the loss of a dear friend and contributor to the Southside ARTS Agenda, Mrs. Barbara Scruggs, in her 75th year.   We last spoke with Barbara on June 18th, the day before her sudden passing regarding the 'Artist Choice' traveling exhibit which she championed and organized.    We will miss her valued assistance, her creativity, but mostly her energy Barbara Scruggs was not only a good artist but also a good organizer. She strongly supported the Newnan-Coweta Art Association (NCAA) which she served in various capacities including being its delegate to the the Newnan-Coweta Arts Council, where she served for a time as Secretary.  She was also a strong advocate of co-operation among the various Southside art associations for which reason she was very active in the Southern Crescent Alliance of Visual Artists, serving twice as its President (in 2004 and 2007).   Barbara will be missed; her passing is a grievous loss for the Coweta and Southside arts scene.
