Spring Clean Up!!

Saturday, March 11 starting at 11:00 am until 3:00 pm

 

We are going to clean and organize art supplies and get the gallery in order. If you have "squirreled" any art supplies at the center, you may be asked to take things home. It's a little too cluttered. We would like to refresh the gallery space and have all work properly signed in so please plan to bring in some new work and take home any pieces that have been on display for a while.

We appreciate ALL of you and all you do and we need to work together to make this an awesome space.  Please bring a smile and a cold drink.
