During the lazy days of summer, the pace of the Visiting

Artist Program changes. We have artists from time to time, but most of our

sessions are spent exploring techniques and processes introduced during the

rest of the year. We also learn from each other and from art technique videos.

Beginners as well as those with art experience are welcome. It is free and

open to all Senior Center members. This very unique program provides time

to explore creative activities each Tuesday from 1:00 to 3:00. Watch the

bulletin board for information about artists who are coming.
