Please join us at our next Monthly Monday meeting on June 2nd at 6:30pm for our annual Art in the Park event. We are also having a potluck, so don’t forget to bring a dish or beverage to share!
We ask that you bring your own reusable cup/bowl/plate and utensils, since we are environmental stewards. Let’s help promote and save the environment by using less plastic!
Game of Shrooms is a global annual event in which artists hide their mushroom-themed artwork in public spaces on June 14th for others to find and keep! Join us for an art workshop where we will make artwork for the event. We will have art supplies and projects you can make, but feel free to bring your art ideas and supplies, too. All ages and skill levels welcome! Check out the Game of Shrooms website to learn more about the event. If you want to make some art, but not participate in Game of Shrooms, that is totally fine!
