PATH
Sometimes inspiration needs a little kick start, so we are holding a quarterly art challenge for our members. Take the suggested theme and run with it in your own imagination and style. Interpret the theme any way you wish.
Submit a picture of your creation to Joan Stackpole joanstackpole@gmail.com for her to post on our website and Facebook page. We will be lookiing for work around which the DAA can write a proposal for a group show.
Thanks to Valerie Wiehman-Rock for this suggestion and Mary Zierold for the first theme! Our second theme, PATH, comes from Bonnie Schetski.
