The new year is starting with shirtsleeves but could quickly turn to hats and gloves. So we are celebrating snow and it's beauty this month.

Here she takes us off the beaten path and shares scenes and images guaranteed to make you more observant on your next walk around the Burg.
MARCH: "WANDERINGS" by Lois Baird

APRIL: "SPRING FLING" All Member Show

AUGUST: "EMERALD ISLE BEAUTY" & "HAND SEWN BEADED TREASURES"
Throughout August, we feature two very talented artists in two very different mediums. Megan Crockett shares her inspirational visit to Ireland with her acrylic paintings of "Emerald Isle Beauty."
