January 2018 Upcoming Programs

JANUARY 2018
Reminder to everyone to bring your Row-by-Row projects to the January meeting for show and tell. The quilts or quilt tops don’t have to be complete – share  your progress!

We’re also looking for a new team to take on Programs. We’ve got the next few months arranged already, so anyone who volunteers will have an easy introduction to the job. Working with a team, Programs is both fun to do and a great opportunity to get to know people better.

January Program: Barb Mortell – The Power of Creativity
Barb Mortell will join us to give a presentation entitled The Power of Creativity. She believes that creativity exists in all of us in one form or another, and that we need to nurture it in order to live a whole-hearted life. A regular practice of art-making and doing creative things keeps us young and open minded. We will do some quick creative exercises at the meeting, so bring pieces of paper and pencils or pens. www.barbmortell.ca and www.artleap.ca
