Art Studio at PPL

Open Studio Night
Thursday, May 9 from 6 - 8pm

Join us the second Thursday of each month for 2 hours of focused painting or drawing. This free, informal gathering is for artists of all skill levels. Still- life compositions will be set up in the center of the room for inspiration, though participants may work from their own photographs if they prefer. Artists will provide their own materials including easels if they desire. A drop-cloth is required if the artist uses paint or pastels. Gentle instruction will be available for those who desire it.

Gallery Hands
Friday, May 10, 24, 31 from 10 - 11am

Support the arts at your library! Hands are needed to help create collaborative art pieces that will be exhibited in The Gallery each month. Materials and instructions will be provided. February’s project will be a Chihuly-style sculpture, created from recycled plastic bottles.
