Valentine's/Galentine's Day
is just around the corner!

Brighten February with our upcoming classes!
While our Barn Quilt class is now full (yay!), there are still openings in our Two-day "Heart & Hammer" Jewelry class! Come learn to solder (you could even make it a shared experience for Valentine's Weekend!) Give your favorite person (you?) a unique experience and life-time skill!
Creative Community at Klondike

Do you enjoy being creative? Do you consider yourself an artist, an artisan, a crafter, or a maker? Do you enjoy painting, weaving, knitting or crocheting, sketching, crafting jewelry or anything hand-made? Or do you just like learning something new?
Does your creativity run along musical lines? We welcome your tunes!
Come join us at The Creative on Thurs., February 19th for our next
gathering of Community Creatives.
Doors open at 5:30pm, and lights out at 9pm.
Come by when you can & bring a beverage of your choice with whatever you're working on for time spent creating with (new) friends in your community. Between projects? Just come to hang out and see what others are doing. Need help with a project? One of us may be able to help you out!
​
We'll be meeting on the Third Thursday of every month.
Some months we will have small projects to try together.
Want to try something new? This is your opportunity. We've already explored classes in Flower Pounding & Marbling, and even enjoyed a "Paint & Sip". Take advantage of these special low-cost classes to be offered at some of our upcoming gatherings:
​
January 15th: Needle Felting (We had fantastic turnout!)

February 19th: Macrame
Classes run from 6-8pm (Must sign up to participate)​

Other classes we're considering: Wet-felted bowls, Gnome bottle toppers, Cork ornaments, Alcohol ink prints, Watercolor, Leaf prints

Did you miss our segment on the Great Day St. Louis Roadtrip to Missouri Wine Country? Check it out!

Have you ever wondered about this beautiful St Charles County park called Klondike? Come see our new History Wall in the Quarry Gallery, just inside the front entrance. Bravo to Bill and Chris Schaul, who knocked it out of the park with a ton of hard work and research!
Be sure to check out the display of glass items actually made with Klondike silica!

Did you attend either of our Family Art Carnivals this year (Feb. 1st and/or March 1st)? Please let us know what you thought! We had a lot of fun and want to make sure we do it right next time!
