Drop-in Sessions at Gallery 1710
The Guild offers drop-in sessions that afford a more casual learning environment for members and non-members. Saturday demos during shows provide a chance to meet and learn from some of our members. Life Drawing on Mondays has live models. And Share your Techniques on the 3rd Tuesday of each month means you can bring your arts supplies and join in.

Share Your Techniques
Drop in on the 3rd Tuesday of each month to the Gallery 1710 workroom. Each month a different topic is chosen, such as clouds, waves, perspective drawing, simple figures, matt cutting, etc., and a member does a short demo. After the demo, everyone tries it out. It’s like a mini workshop with friends!
Registration is not required. Just show up with your paints and tools.
Per session fees: Members Free; Non-Members $15
