It is with tremendous sorrow and sense of loss that we share the knowledge that Flagstaff has lost one of its true talents and warm, caring, thoughtful artists, ROBERT DALEGOWSKI. Not only will Bob's masterful work be missed, the Flagstaff art community is diminished even more by never again being able to experience Bob's humanity, empathy, and inspiring, positive outlook, embodied in both his work, and in the face his many challenges over the years. All who ever knew him were affected by his spirit and amazing artwork, stories, and brilliant, yet so understated banter, and any event or gallery was always enhanced by his presence. His long time membership in the ACF, and participation in Flagstaff Open Studios will be missed not only this year, but in all years to follow. No tribute can do justice to what he deserves, but please rest in peace, Bob, reunited with the spirit of the West that he embraced, illustrated, and lived each day of his life.
The Canyons are crying out with their loss and will never be the same without you.

From ACF Board member Carl Ramsey:
I have numerous legal size file cabinets and also 6' - 8" high book shelves to give away for storage of art work. or whatever. All anyone has to do is pick them up and be capable of loading the item themselves or with help they bring.. I also have some drawing flat files that would be great for storage painting, drawings o prints. I have two of them and they are $50 each - as you may know these typically sale for hundreds. I'm around most of the time, however working at the gallery on this Thursday and Friday.
My cell is 928 600-0007
