Ava Richey's Art News

Hi Everyone,

This coming Monday, October 31, 2011, 12:00 - 3 p.m., we will be painting at Rancho Viejo Restaurant. It's the new Mexican Restaurant at the NE corner of Hwy 42S and Hwy 101 in Bandon (across the highway from the coffee kiosk by Ray's Food Place).

The weather is supposed to be cloudy with rain, so an inside spot may be needed.

My phone is 541-347-4643 or cell is 541-297-6118.

Thanks.
Ava

p.s.: If you are a veteran and an artist please check under the Call to Artists at the bottom of the newsletter for an upcoming show.
