SPRING MEMBERS' CHALLENGE

NEW! Members’ Challenge

Theme: “To Collage a Quote”

Artwork will be displayed at the APR 3 meeting

You know them: Quotes to live by, to make you chuckle,

words that burrow into your heart, inspire nostalgia, lift your spirit.

"Life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get."

"Do what you feel in your heart to be right – for you'll be criticized anyway."

“I alone cannot change the world, but I can cast a stone

across the waters to create many ripples."

Have you got a favorite quote? Let your creative juices flow, collage it, and share it.

Sign up sheets will be available at the FEB 6 and MAR 6 meetings.

If you cannot attend the meeting,
