River City – we made it all 49 of us!
Our first few hours of visiting we spent doing what else – making art. In our grab bag was a lovely hard cover sketchbook for us to collage on. Here is Robin’s cover.
After a delicious dinner of yummy shrimp we participated in the Artwork Exchange. Everyone told a short story about their piece before the name was drawn for the winner.

This year some of the members ventured away from the traditional wall art, some of the exciting pieces were – a book cover, vessels, felted bowl, art journal, and fold out book.
Stayed tuned for day two events!
So great to see everyone! And the art exchange pieces are incredible!
Great day 1! Congratulations to this year’s conference organizers!
So fun to reconnect in person. The best art exchange ever! Thanks to all who submitted. Loved making my sketchbook cover, so much inspiration in this room.
Great art exchange, awesome art pieces
