Art Connect members are excited to meet new members where we can support our creative efforts to learn techniques, sell our creations, and in a social setting visit shows and galleries for further learning and motivation.
Bring a piece of creativity for a supportive critique if you like and learn about opportunities to develop your skills and pursuits.
Also, there will be a half hour demo on technique on how to repair your canvas if the unimaginable happens and you accidentally put a hole in your favorite art piece.
Guests and current members are encouraged to bring a piece of craft or art to show for a positive critique and feedback.
See you at 6:30 pm and stay until 8:00pm on Wednesday May 21st and bring a like-minded friend to join us!
