A book illustrated by Evangelia Phillipidis, who shared it along with many other wonderful images and talked about her life, work, and process at our March meeting.
March Meeting with Evangelia Phillipidis 
 
For our March 1 meeting, we met at the Columbus Metropolitan Library where our guest speaker was Arts Member, Evangelia Phillipidis.  She gave a wonderful talk and showed us her award winning illustrations.  Then we had a general meeting where we discussed the results of our survey, a call for volunteers to serve on our board and committees, upcoming events, and supcoming events from our members.

Many thanks to Evangelia for her sharing her fascinating story and art with all of us!
