What's Happening
ArtTalks
Sunday, December 10, 1-3pm, Bothwell Park
How do you navigate the line between making work that your audience responds to and what you want to create? Come share your experience and thoughts.
Also, there will be a SMALL WORKS HOLIDAY SWAP. Bring a few small pieces to swap with your fellow artists - cards, postcard, small works, ornament, craft... The more pieces you bring the more you can swap!
Bring something to sit on and a piece of your artwork to share (optional).
What It's About
Each gathering offers an opportunity to talk art with other artists and art enthusiasts about an art topic and to share your artwork in a supportive environment. Did you just finish a piece and want to show it off or is a piece stalled and you want some input? This is the place for you.
