Front Porch Festival

As mentioned during yesterday's meeting of the Vanguard Artists, Kristi Herring gives more specific information here:

Front Porch Festival

Oct. 20^th

At “The Open Door Too”

Come join the fun with Kristi Herring, Mardelle Driscoll,

and Mark Ward (Kristi’s son).  Kristi will be demonstrating watercolor, (with a whimsical style) on bookmarks or small cards.

Donations will go to PAW Love, an organization helping abused and neglected animals.

The Entertainment will feature Mardelle Driscoll on Cello.  Her talents never stop, she also might be seen with a paint brush in her hand helping Kristi.

Direct from California is “Mark Ward”, with his wonderful songs and guitar work from yester-years.  Standards you’ll want to sing along with him.

So come join the fun Oct. 20^th, 7142 N. 58^th Dr. Glendale, AZ. (Catlin Court shops).  You’ll be helping by picking up a card or bookmark, for some very needy animals.

This message comes from Marion Wishnefski:


I am displaying my work at the Sundial Recreation Center in Sun City for the month of September as Palo Verde "artist of the month".

The paintings will be located in the display case on the upper floor of the rec center.

Congratulations, Marion, on being the Artist of the Month!
