February 24 - Member Potluck - 5:30-7:30pm
Join us for a cozy winter evening of “Soup, Stew & Sourdough” on Tuesday, February 24, from 5:30–7:30 PM.

This evening is all about coming together—sharing food, conversation, laughter, and the creative spirit that makes our ASA community so special. Please bring your significant other or friend who might like to meet ASA members, a favorite dish to share (homemade or store-bought—both are perfect!), and we’ll provide the rest: good company and a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere.

Schedule

5:30-6:30 - Eat and socialize (Bring your favorite soups, hearty stews, and delicious breads to share.)
6:30-7:30 - Announcements, short presentation on an art topic to help on the art journey.

Come hungry and leave inspired.

February 25 - Open Studio - 10am to 3pm
Gather, create, and learn together in a shared studio experience. Artists of all levels come together to explore, experiment, and inspire one another. Explore watercolor and feel free to add collage, pastel, acrylics, inks, printmaking techniques, or other mediums. This is a space for discovery, conversation, problem-solving, and artistic community.

February 26 - Open Studio - 1pm to 4pm
We need another week to finish sea turtles. Please bring your own reference photos and supplies.

Last week I took home a box from the ramp room at ASA, which looked like it was left there for the garage sale. It was full of stamps and stencils, and I would really like it if the person who left that there would get in touch with me because I have some questions for you. Thank you.
