Members are encouraged to share their expertise with one another to help everyone grow as artists together. 

Coloring for Calmness • Wednesdays • 9:30 am 

There’s something about a freshly sharpened colored pencil and the chance to color in between the lines that just makes the world disappear. Come join us for a relaxing time to socialize and put our minds at ease while we create colorful masterpieces together. All supplies provided. Plenty of options are availble with larger pictures for those with sight issues.

Wood Carving • Thursdays • 9:00 am 

Whether you’re a novice looking to learn a new skill, or an experienced wood worker- this class is for you! Newbies: we’ll show you the ropes, lend you some tools, and help you get started on a project...and before you know it, you’ll be the one sharing your knowledge. Seasoned carvers: come join the fun and share your expertise. As with all of our classes, all levels and genders are welcome!

Stitch and Chat • Thursdays • 9:30 am 

Have a knitting, crocheting, cross stitch, or other crafty project that you’re working on? Join us for this informal gathering where you can bring any project and make some progress in the company of good friends.
