Arts & Culture CSP Meeting

Bring your ideas with you for what you would like to see us accomplish throughout the summer and during our upcoming year. Your input is valuable and we look forward to visiting with you all. 

Some initial ideas:

  • A group art project from our club for the Arts and Crafts Contest in 2025.

    • One idea is to have several people each do a square for a quilted wall hanging using whatever type of art they want (embroidery, fabric paint, applique, crochet, sketch, etc.). Should we have a theme for the wall hanging to bring it all together?

    • Have an Arts & Crafts Day during the summer where various types of art or crafts are demonstrated at different tables. Attendees could learn how to do the crafts they are interested in.

Please let Lucy Pellegrini know if you plan to attend. (lucypell@bellsouth.net or 904-577-3064)
