REMINDER/RECAP: Our Show at First Unitarian Church, May 29th

First: thanks to everyone who contributed art materials for the hospitalized veterans. Good work gang.

Second: here are the drop off and pick up schedule details for the show at the First Unitarian Church. Remember, if you possibly can send them your paperwork before Saturday morning if would relieve some anxiety on their part. I think they're a little nervous that there won't be enough stuff to fill the space.

ARTWORK DROP OFF / SHOW HANGING
May 29: SATURDAY, 8:30 am - until complete

Online Article: Fantastic Pencil Sculptures Of Jennifer Maestre

I'm sure many of you have seen forwarded email images of these wonderful pencil sculptures, but there rarely seems to be any information about them or the artist included. Now we can learn a bit more: these sculpture are by artist Jennifer Maestre. Here is a link to an online article for those of you wishing to learn a bit more about her and her work.

See more at the artist's own website.

Thanks to chapter member Rex Barron for suggestion this post.
