Next Artisans' section meeting Thurs, Sept 9


Summer vacation season is drawing to a close and members of the Creative Artisans' section of the St. Louis Artists' Guild are set to resume their monthly meetings on Thurs, Sept 9, 7-9pm in the 2nd floor Members Gallery, Two Oak Knoll Park, Clayton, MO. The evening will highlight the care and sharpening of carving tools used by our woodworker artisans. We will also view a fascinating cache of previously unpublished photos of turn of 20th century life along the Mississippi recently discovered by one of our members. We are also looking forward to hearing about what members did over the summer including reports about the Sculptural Objects and Fine Art exposition in Santa Fe, NM as well as the Frank Lloyd Wright Home & Studio in Oak Park, IL. The meeting is open to everyone and there is no charge to attend. A brief business meeting for section members will conclude the evening. To learn more about the section and its members visit the Creative Artisans website.
