If you're looking for a fun and special event for your Valentine (or be your own Valentine), please consider the Durham Art Guild's 19 Annual Sweet Arts Auction and Fundraiser event, this Friday, Feb 15, 7-10pm at Golden Belt. Proceeds support our local artist events and programs, including a new Mentor Partnership program with Student U. Five mentor/student partners are spending two hours per week from Jan-May working together, learning together, and creating and practicing different art skills. In just a few weeks, my student has taken dozens of photographs, edited them with computer software, measured and cut glass, applied photo transfers, learned how to safely use two glass and cutting tools, trying different design ideas and layouts, and is now working on her first mosaic panel.
Meanwhile, I am enjoying getting to know this young lady, and brewing up some ideas of my own. Join us Friday evening, celebrate Valentine's day, and support our local arts!
