June 2025 General Meeting

May General Meeting

We had a good time at the May General Meeting, Listening to Demo Artist Doug Hiser talk about his art and his books, and demonstrating his creation of a beautiful watercolor wildlife scene.

New Meeting Location and Time!

Meeting will be on Tuesday, June 17, 2025

Henceforth our meetings will be at Strawbridge United Methodist Church in Kingwood, at 5629 Kingwood Dr.
It is at the intersection of Kingwood Drive and Willow Terrace. From Kingwood Drive, turn north onto Willow Terrace. Take the first left turn. This should put you in the parking lot in back.
After parking, go up the stairs on the right side of the parking lot. To the left you should see a sign for the Office. You MUST enter through the office door. A helper will be there to let you in and give you directions.
Meeting time has been changed to accommodate the availability of our meeting room. We will meet at 6:00 p.m. The meeting ends at 8:30 p.m.

What to Bring

Since these new meetings will be starting so early, you might want to bring some light snacks to share, as well as your own (non-alcoholic) beverage. Also please bring a plastic bag to pack your trash away with you. We want to be considerate to our generous new hosts!
Our summer meetings, as we explained before, will be informal workshops. For the June meeting we will be working on Printing and Scratchboard. Here is a list of the supplies we are asking everyone to bring for the work:
Pencil
Clothes they are okay getting dirty
Disposable gloves, if you’d like
2″x3″ in high contrast image ideas – images that will be easy to see through tracing paper
Cleaned and flattened Tetrapak container (juice cartons, etc)
Cut down flat pieces of PETE containers (clear plastic fruit containers)

Change in Dues Payment Options

We are now offering Zelle as an option for paying your dues. It should be very easy, and won’t involve the fees charged by PayPal. So, going forward, we will accept only cash, PayPal, or Zelle for payments. Ask us if you have questions.
