Mark your calendar!

Please join us on Sunday August 20 from 1pm to 5pm for the bigger and better, second annual, LYC Art Show & Fundraiser. Marina McGee and Luci Lavis came up with this idea last year and the response has been inspiring! Artist entry fees and 15% of all sales will be donated to the American Cancer Society. There will be a wide variety of arts and crafts represented at this year’s show. A bake sale is also planned. We have a special liquor license for this event so please invite your friends as non-members can enjoy a glass of wine, mimosa, or something else as they browse the offerings.

Volunteers are needed to help with set up, take down, and clean up. Also needed are members willing to provide entries for the bake sale and to staff the sale. I’m certain that we have a whole lot of great bakers out there with some fabulous recipes whose contributions would make for a great sale and addition to the art show & sale. To volunteer, contact Luci Lavis  or Marina McGee.
