Sorry it's been awhile since our last post. Things have busy for #13feetofftheground. Here we are( minus a few) at one of our monthly meetings this summer so far. So much to talk about... So much to plan... So much fun 🌞 Thanks @deborah_bakos_art for hosting this round! We can't wait to share some upcoming events and projects with you! Stay tuned!
Look how proud these #13fotg women are standing next to their pieces in Parker Street Studios. What a super fun and successful weekend during their annual @parkerartsalon . The halls were adorned with beautiful art by all the participants and it was such a great turnout. Congrats ladies and to everyone who participated in this year's Salon.
Thank you to everyone who came out to our slideshow and talk on the weekend. Thank you to @elleryart and @alisonkeenanfineart for putting together the script and images for the slideshow. Thank you to @lipontplace for having us and letting share our story. Thanks to @jennbrissonart for sharing her video of our time in @granitimurales once again. And of course to all the #13feetofftheground members for their continuous support for one another and hard work and contributions that make #13fotg what it is today. Here's to more adventures in the near future! Grazie mille!!
Before our talk... The gang is together again (minus a few people). Laughing and getting ready before the audience arrives. #lipontplace #lipontartcentre #13fotg #13feetofftheground #artisttalk
