We’ve had a very busy year already, and there’s more to come! The 2024 exhibition schedule is already posted online, but I want to give you the quick version here.
We are working on the adult class schedule, too, so expect to see more on that soon, and the “Kids Exploring Art with CAM” program is firming up. There will be opportunities for everyone to help and/or participate!
What would YOU like to do?!
