Tuesday Art Time at the Placerville Senior Center has new hours to accommodate any of you who might not be early birds. We have the Large Crafts Room now every Tuesday from 9 a.m. until 1 p.m. Come draw, paint, scratch, paste, share ideas about methods and materials, get suggestions, and just be around other artists. Come early, come late, stay all 4 hours, 4 minutes, or just stop by to say hello. No need to RSVP, just show up. Questions? Contact Carolyn Cunningham at ccart2002@yahoo.com or call 909-525-5774.
