At 7, we'll be gathering at 532 Norton (there will be guitar(s) and piano(s) available) as a songwriters circle, which will hopefully be a non-intimidating space to develop music that we could use for communal worship at ECV and elsewhere. Bring a song you have been working on and would be willing to share-- it doesn't matter how complete or incomplete it is, we can work on it. There may be cookies. :)</div><div><br /></div>Tina Colonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12598068184954727674noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7477700560088942926.post-83942827507774634272010-12-18T01:53:00.000-05:002010-12-18T01:53:43.971-05:00Fruit of the Circle...<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</b></div><div style="font-family: Helvetica;">The Elm City Artist Circle is a place of gathering for any and everyone who creates (or desires to create) art. Any kind of art--visual, written, graphic, musical, anywhere in between--at any level.</div><div style="font-family: Helvetica;"><br />
</div><div style="font-family: Helvetica;">If you fall into that category, and will be around on the evening of the 17th, you are invited to join for the last meeting of 2010. Bring a piece of art that you have created, and be willing to share--we'll be swapping pieces and creating based on what we've chosen. (It may sound intimidating, but it doesn't have to be.)</div><div style="font-family: Helvetica;"><br />
</div><div style="font-family: Helvetica;">If you have nothing you want to share, still come! You can create while you're there. No pressure to be 'phenomenal'-- we're all learning and growing here. Feel free to bring your artistically inclined friends along with you.</div><div style="font-family: Helvetica;"><br />
</div><div style="font-family: Helvetica;">Hope to see you there.</div><div><br />
