DIY Creative Makers sessions with process demos and Artist Member-led group support and feedback.

STUDIO SUNDAYS always provide an OPEN WORKSPACE for any materials a participant wants to bring (make new work or continue to work on a project from a previous week's session).  Every week will begin with a DEMO provided by an Agitator Member or guest artist that will focus on a specific art material or process.
