<br />Our first meeting after summer break will feature a demo by <a href="http://www.nelsoncreative.com/gallery/">Elizabeth St. Hilaire Nelson</a>. Well known locally for her wonderful collages, her works are much sought after both here and abroad. It should be lots of fun! And don't forget to bring some of your own artwork for everyone to admire (and also a tasty snack--somehow lemon meringue pie comes to mind!)
