Remember - Artfest Drop Off is 10 am - 2 pm Saturday, April 27th or 1 - 5 pm Tuesday, April 30th.

Make sure your paintings are prepared to hang (wire, no saw tooth hangers) and that your paperwork is all in order. Thanks!

The next figure study will be held on Tuesday, April 23, from 6 to 8 p.m. at the Burrus House.

For those who have not yet had a chance to join us, the Art Guild of Person County members will be sketching from a live model.  Our clothed model will pose, sitting or standing in position, for up to 10 minutes per pose as we increase our skill in drawing the human figure.  

The Burrus House, which is owned by St. Mark's Episcopal Church, is located on the other side of the parking lot next to the church.
