Traffic is back. I just picked up a to-go order at an almost full restaurant. What I am truly looking forward to is less mask wearing, more hugging, sharing close spaces (with friends, not sure about strangers yet.) I look forward to more options and opportunities to see art and hear music. To share food and experiences with friends. Art openings…museums…I’ll be there. So please allow me to share some of the things I find interesting to go see and do. And of course go over to Poet’s Place and check out the offerings from Linda and her fabulous group of poets.
This weekend at These Hands Collective in Venice
Sunday! Sunday! Sunday!! There are two classes, soldered chain bracelet and silver metal clay. You can do one or both. Check out the schedule over at These Hands, sign up, and we’ll see you Sunday!!
Metal clay is pretty darn cool.
You know you want to make your own sterling silver bracelet.
