| SUN LAKES LIFESTYLES | JUNE 2024 | 37
Spring is in the air and with that come all the
enchanting colors of the season. Why not make
those colors last in a drawing or painting? The Art
League wants YOU to join us. We invite our former members to
return and we always welcome guests. Come see who we are and
what we offer; watch an artist demonstration, take a class, enjoy the
friendship of other art lovers. We meet on the second Sunday of the
month at 2 pm in the South Clubhouse. June and July are "dark"
months with no scheduled meetings or activities, but we do look
forward to seeing some "old" and "new" faces on Aug. 11.
Our mini art show winners for April were: First place, Sandy
Martin with an exquisite pencil rendering
of a Calla Lily. in second place, Marcy
McCallister showed us her many talents
in a mixed media suite of multi-color
flowers. For third place, Barb Roberts who
took us to a relaxing Mexican courtyard
in her acrylic painting. Congratulations!
Our May meeting featured the multi-
talented artist, David Farrington, who
demonstrated his technique and followed
up with three mornings of classes. Those
in attendance had a wonderful learning
(and creating) experience. A good time
was had by all members and guests who came to our annual potluck.
Good food, door prizes, and entertainment by the Sun Lakes Dancers
completed the evening.
Dates to remember: Aug. 11, abstract/collage demonstration by
our own Art League member and talented artist, Carol Cole. On
Sept. 8, watercolor/acrylic artist, Suni Godbold, will demonstrate
her technique. Both meetings will have follow-up classes. Please
contact Linda Grabler at (951) 758-3142 for further information
or to reserve a spot in these classes. Cost is $30 for members, $35
for non-members. Mark your calendars for Sept. 21 when the
entire community is invited to attend our annual Art Walk in the
Main Clubhouse Ballroom. The many
talented members of the Art League will
be displaying their work (for sale at the
artists' discretion); there will be door
prizes too. See you there!
In order to keep our "Club" designation
we need new members. Dues are $20.

and always make art a part of your life!
