County, will meet Aug. 9
at the Mohawk Community

an encore evening with local
artist Virginia Jaquez.
A multi-talented and gifted
printmaker, Jaquez will
once again hold a hands-on
presentation of printmaking
techniques.
This short workshop will
be geared to beginners as
well as experienced print-
makers.
Those who attended last
year's workshop should
bring their carving tools and
some fun ideas.
There will be a small
materials fee of $10 to cover
the cost of ink and paper.
No art experience is neces-
sary, just a desire to learn
a new craft and have fun.
Visitors are always welcome
at guild meetings.

at 83@1399 for further infor-
mation.
