Calling all artists
We have finally secured a time and place for our community art club. We are planning to meet every Monday from 1 to 4 p.m. at the Evangelical United Methodist Church at 14 W. Cohawkin Road in Clarksboro. We are looking for creative people to join a group of like-minded creatives. Do you have art supplies packed away in a closet just waiting for “inspiration”? Or are you an active artist who would appreciate the opportunity to work and mingle with artists from the neighborhood.
Please bring your own art supplies. There are tables, chairs, water and rest rooms. Each participant will practice their own “medium”.
Enjoy meeting “like-minded” people and sharing your art journey. Beginners are welcome. Look for our blasts with more current information. Please email jackie.gordon31@yahoo.com or call Jackie at 609.471.2275 with questions.
