On the studio Facebook page, I plan to have videos of students' work and of things I have been doing including how I make the hand dyed scarves and time-lapse videos of recently completed paintings. I will also have an update on what is happening with the fall schedule of classes.

​

I am also offering special Home Coming Day Cookies to 20 people who live in Salem County. To be eligible for the cookies, send me a message or an email (homecomingartstudio@comcast.net) with your name, address, and email address by 5:00 pm on August 12. The winners will be randomly selected on August 13 and cookies delivered to your house on August 14 or 15.
