Every Saturday in March- Family Time, 10:45 am - Everyone is invited for stories, singing, rhyming and dancing.
3/5- The Art House, 6:00 pm - Evergreen artist Chris McAllister helps you discover how to better use the visual vocabulary of shape, value, color, line, texture and edges. Explore these concepts in still life, landscape, portrait and figure paintings. All skill levels are welcome. Bring in a project you're already working on or join a group project. Work in oil or acrylic paints, just bring your own painting supplies. A limited amount of extra supplies will be available for use. New students welcome.
