April 17-19 (from 10am-4pm), ASA will participate in the city-wide garage sale. Member extraordinaire Kathy Cope has been getting ASA ready for the event. A decorative carousel horse is on display in the gallery. ASA is selling raffle tickets in order to fundraise with this beautiful item. ASA is also looking for volunteers to help with tasks before, during, and after the sale. Contact Kathy to sign up for a helper shift!

ASA received a large donation of beads from one of our members. Anyone who is interested in purchasing beads before the garage sale should contact Kathy to arrange a time to come and see what's available.

Congratulations to ASA member Susan Dietz! She announced on social media that Stampington Art Journaling magazine published a 10-page article she wrote! 
 
"It is such an honor to share my story with these other talented artists. I love this magazine, not only for the beautiful inspiration but also for the stories of where the creative process comes from. I truly believe that creating can heal, and I am so honored to put this out into the world."
