Art League
Just in case: Check with your club contact to confirm meeting place, date, and time.
To all the residents of Sun Lakes,
especially those who have moved
here recently: I'd like you to know
about the Art League and about
possibly becoming a member in the future. During
COVID-19, we've not been able to have our regular
meetings, classes, or group events. Normally we're a
very active group, and I hope that it won't be too long
before we are able to resume our normal activities.
We have a monthly meeting in the South
Clubhouse on Sundays at 2 pm. This includes a short
business meeting, a Mini Art Show, refreshments,
and a painting demonstration by a professional
artist.
There are monthly painting classes in the Main
Clubhouse Arts & Crafts Room. These classes are in
various mediums and taught by professional artists.
The classes are held on three Monday mornings
each month, and are three hours long. It is not
necessary to be an Art League member to attend
these classes.
We normally have a large juried Art Show in the
Ballroom of the Main Clubhouse every year. That
had to be canceled this year. Also, a potluck dinner
is held annually, just as a special social event. In
addition, we have participated in the Fourth of July
Golf Cart Parade for many years.
The membership dues are just $20 annually.
Helen Searcy is the Membership Chairman and you
may contact her for more information at (951) 845-
8198 or by email at hsearcy334@gmail.com.
You may also contact me and leave your email
address, if you'd like to be contacted when the Art
League meetings start up again. My email address
is: shirleychuba@aol.com. Otherwise, just watch
for information in this Lifestyles magazine and the
Sun Lakes Life newspaper.
