Hello Creative Friends,
 
Rainy day activity time - come join us at Open Studio this Saturday, January 21st from 12-3pm.  Open Studio is a community of artists and creatives of all kinds and all ages who create together.

Create what you want, use the theme, or contribute to a project below.
Bring your own materials whatever they may be - paints, pencils, paper, music, guitar, dancing shoes, camera, computer, etc. We always have some materials (and snacks!) to share as well. There is no cost and no need to RSVP. Everyone is welcome.

THEME
Let's go with the same theme as last month: "Winter". (Ideas from Leah Piken Kolidas, creative blogger, and I've expanded some of them)

*Paint in the colors of winter.
*Go out into nature and take pictures of the snow or the bare branches against the sky.
*Cook cozy comfort foods.
*Create an environment that warms you up and inspires you. (candles, cocoa, and blanket forts?)
*Write a poem about the darker months of the year.
*As this year comes to its conclusion, take some time to reflect on what the last 12 months has held for you.
*Create art that plays with idea of hibernation.
*Dream up ways to bring more color into your life this season
*Write a song, choreograph a dance that encompasses "winter"
*other!


PROJECTS
1. Help decorate the outside of a portfolio (collage, painting, other)
2. We want to create a collaborative piece that represents and communicates Open Studio to others. Think of what Open Studio represents to you, and how you might contribute to this piece.
3. We will have a long-term Easter project that we announce at Open Studio
Again, theme and projects are optional.

Hope to see you this Saturday!
Love from,
Open Studio Artists
