And finally an important message from our friends over at 901 Arts:

901 Arts is a non-profit arts organization that provides very low cost or free after-school programming for youth in the Better Waverly community in visual art and music. We host art classes for kids in 3rd through 8th grade Mondays and Wednesdays 4:30-6pm every week. For our upcoming semester of programming, we hope to include a variety of visiting artists during our art classes to expose the youth to different forms of art making, and to bring new people to our organization. We are extremely open to different mediums, and the kids love trying new things.

We are looking for artists interested in coming in for one or more art classes to show some of their own work to the class, and to teach a skill that you are particularly interested in. We also have a large open window used to display work, which could be a great opportunity for you to display your work along with the things made in the art class.

If this seems like something you may be interested in, please email me at cait.m.byrnes@gmail.com and we can talk more!

Thanks!
