Wednesday Open Studio moving next door!
The new board has decided to close the studio and search for a new space. We will miss our large, messy, playspace terribly,   HOWEVER , Lauren Combs and Sara Saravo will still be holding our drop in Wednesday afternoons in Studio One...also in the Studio in the Woods complex. As this is a private studio,  it will be open to all; WAL membership will not be required! Please keep checking the website for updates. You may also rsvp here: https://www.meetup.com/The-Woodlands-Spring-Artists-Meetup-Group or email lp313combs54@hotmail.com for details and more info. Unfortunately, our lovely library will not be accessible for the foreseeable future so if you need some inspiration, come in and browse soon!
Likewise, those with checked out books are asked t oreturn them as soon as possible!
