Acrylics are a beautiful medium to work in. More forgiving than watercolors and
faster drying than oils, they are an ideal tool for producing many different effects.
Learn how to mix and blend colors, keep your colors moist, create textures, glaze,
using palette knives, correcting mistakes and so much more! In this class we will
paint simple winter snow scenes from photos provided. If you have your own photo references, please bring them to class.

 Wednesday, January 17th at 1 PM @ Lyme Library

Join us in welcoming Priscilla Gale, who will be here to present and demonstrate the impact that sound has on our bodies and how it can help us in healing ourselves. “If given the opportunity, the body is genetically pre-programmed to be a self healing instrument, holding within our bones, blood, emotional and ethic bodies the harmonious vibrational memory that is the organizational patterning for perfect health.  When we seek that direct connection of our own individual vibration so as to resonate in concert with the symphonic resonances of the Universe, we transform our personal experiences and begin the journey of healing as we come into balance and harmony with our highest purpose. Priscilla’s dedication and powerful commitment, meets each individual person and their needs right where they are.” This event is free for members, 55 years of age or better.

Monday, January 8th at 1 PM @ The Lyme Library

Overly enthusiastic guitarist Dewey Finn (Jack Black) gets thrown out
of his bar band and finds himself in desperate need of work. Posing as a substitute music teacher at an elite private elementary school, he exposes his students to the hard rock gods he idolizes and emulates –much to the consternation of the uptight principal (Joan Cusack). As he gets his privileged and precocious charges in touch with their inner rock ‘n’ roll animals, he imagines redemption at a local Battle of the Bands! This event is free for members, 55 years of age or better!
