SNAG's Main Office Has a New Location 
SNAG's main office, located in Eugene, Oregon, moved last week to a new space. We didn't move far -- just to the building next door; but it took a couple months of planning. Much of SNAG's archival information, including years of Metalsmith magazines and newsletters, are located in the business office; along with a lot of the management, bookkeeping, and conference materials.
SNAG now has a PO Box. Please update your records and send all mail, including membership renewals and donations to:
PO Box 1355, Eugene OR 97440
