Laura Mart 'American Splendor'

(UN)SEASONED this Saturday!

Dail Chambers is hosting a "craft and conversation" at the studio for the month of March. Building on the energy of Women's history month, we will have a small group of women selling & sharing a variety of their artworks and crafts.
As usual, the studio's events are truly diverse and intergenerational.

I will also have sign up sheets for classes, betterment sessions, etc.

I'm elated about this upcoming event & I hope that you will join us on Saturday, March 6th 2010 from noon til 6!
