November 2020 Newsletter
Dear members, This year is incredibly challenging for everyone. To lighten up your burden of everyday blues, we added a new Open Studio session on Wednesdays. Every Wednesday from 10:00 am to 1:00 pm, you can paint in a friendly atmosphere of other artists, in a clean and disinfected classroom, with social distancing and wearing your beautiful mask. This class was created to be in a different environment because it is important to get out from an everyday stereotype and enrich your well-being. Another year went by, and we will host the ever-popular “Holiday Show – Gallery of Gifts” that brings a lot of customers hunting for special gifts for someone special. Our artists worked tirelessly to fulfill every kind of demands that customers want to purchase. This year's Holiday Show will open on November 20th and goes through December 23rd. We hope to see you at the gallery, and if you visit us, we ask you kindly to wear your mask. Have a beautiful leafy November. NAL |
