SUMMER PROJECT -- "Happy Garden." Each summer the Salem County Art League offers a theme that our members and others can use as inspiration to keep their brushes wet, pencils sharpened, cameras, and craft tools handy.
This is a voluntary project for members and nonmembers.
Here is the 2022 Summer Project theme and guidelines:Better get started! The October meeting will be here before you know it!
- *The theme is “Happy Garden," which means anything garden related: flowers, landscapes, tools, etc. Time to get that right (creative) side of your brain working!
- *Work should be competed for the October general meeting "Show and Tell" in order to share it with everyone.
- *There is no prize.
- *This is not a competition.
- It's just for fun and to help you set a goal to keep "creating" during the summer.
