 DON'T MISS OUR DECEMBER MEETING! DECEMBER 16TH, COME AT 11AM 



OUR ANNUAL HOLIDAY PARTY GIFT EXCHANGE "NAUGHTY SANTA" IS THE EVENT OF THE SEASON! THIS IS HOW IT WORKS: Bring a WRAPPED GIFT that is your own artwork and put it on the gift table. Get a number from Pam Richardson for the exchange.  As the numbers are called, you have the option of picking a wrapped gift from the table or "stealing" a gift that another person has already opened.  That person gets to pick another gift from the table or steal someone else's.  You then show the group your gift and must keep it out in the open.  All gifts are available until they have been stolen for the third time.  This is a very fun and silly event with lots of twists and turns.  Wonderful member work is hidden inside those packages and each opening is exciting!To make this extra special we are asking members to bring a holiday treat and/or wine to share at our party.    If you choose not to participate, come anyway, it's fun to watch. WEAR YOUR MOST FESTIVE HOLIDAY ATTIRE!
