NOVEMBER MEETING

To backtrack for a moment, our October meeting, when we hosted the

Chamber of Commerce Mixer, was a great success. The Chamber members

seemed really to enjoy seeing the artworks, as well as eating the great food

offered by PPAA.  The room was full of people having a good time.

For our November meeting, on Tuesday, November 24, we will have a

model, so get out your easels, paints, charcoal, whatever—and enjoy a

productive evening with friends.  As usual, we meet at the Palisades

Woman’s Club, 901 Haverford Avenue, at 7 p.m.

LIBRARY GALLERY

Take-down for the show is on MONDAY, November 30, from 10-12. If you

don’t pick up your work, you pay $10 for each piece.
