Please join us for this relaxed drop-in session for artists and dabblers -- no instruction, but lots and lots of supplies for you to use as you choose. We have everything from a range of substrates and papers (including specialty and handmade papers) and adhesives, to paints and paint markers, washi tapes, rubber stamps and inks, a die cutter with dies and embossing folders, and different ephemera. You can also bring and use supplies of your own. You can come for some or all of the time. It is "pay as you please" with $15 as a middling guideline suggestion -- we recognize everyone's usage is different. You can pay by cash or check made out to "Margaret Lane Gallery" -- we will also have a QR code for accessing a paylink if you prefer to pay by card. Pre-registration is not required, but it helps us plan. Payment is at the time of the session. All mediums welcome. Suitable for adults and mature teens. Younger school age children with supervising adult welcome. Pre-registration (optional) link: www.margaretlanegallery.com/workshop-registration (select "Drop Inn/Open Studio Sessions" Filter)
