A shout out to Rachel W.G. for running a new art program at Lookout Society!  

Thank you to The Jim Green, The Jeffrey Ross & Sakura So for welcoming us into your lounges!

"Some participants were eager to try the project, others were  interested in experimenting with different mediums. Some even brought their own supplies and were excited to try out supplies provided during the session. Lots of great socialization and flow within the group." RWG

​

We are so very grateful to our generous donor for enabling us to purchase a much longed for and highly beneficial pug mill for our potters! Gone are the days of laborious recycling of clay buckets.

In fact, one of the potters exclaimed

"It's a thing of beauty and a joy forever". Well said!

Thank you all! 

We are pleased to announce our new fundraising calendars for 2022 are hot off the press!

​

This effort was made possible with participation from our Fall Class instructors, assistants and students!  Great Work Everyone!  We look forward to seeing more creativity in 2022!
