DAL News of Importance
Thank you to all of you who paid your member dues for 2010. We appreciate your continued membership!
Art Togetherness is every Tuesday at the Weber Gallery at 10:00 am to get together with other artists to create your favorite art. Bring your project to work on and your own materials. This is a time of sharing, exchanging ideas and critique, not instruction.
The Brentwood Library is looking for artists to hang their works on the walls of the library at 104 Oak Street. For more information please call Leonard at (925) 516-5290.
