Art Night(For details visit our Art Night website!) Art Night is a time to set aside for relaxation and creatvity, and it doesn't cost a thing! Art Night is not about the result of the work, as much as it’s about the experience of being creative. Engaging in creative activities without focusing as much on the outcome can be energizing and relaxing all at the same time.

Here's how it works - you bring your art to Art Night. It might be knitting, beading, sewing, crochet, scrap booking, computer art, web page design, song writing, poem writing, decoupage, whittling… pretty much whatever makes you happy! Other folks bring their stuff too, and we all get together in a fun creative environment, do our art, and be in community with one another.
