Perfect for spring break fun\, making something unique and meaningful. \nSpaces are limited — grab your spot and let’s make some art that birds will LOVE this spring! 🐤💛 \n*Kids ages 8+ can stay unsupervised; please plan for an adult to stay with kiddos under age 8!* \nPlease bring your own *washed out* milk / juice carton (the cardboardy-papery- type works best!)

SUMMARY:Marketing for Artists: Social Media 101 - Sharing Your Work with the World
DESCRIPTION:You were not given your creativity to hide it. \nSo many talented artists quietly create beautiful work… yet never share it beyond their immediate circle. Not because they don’t care—but because technology feels intimidating\, self-promotion feels uncomfortable\, and the idea of “marketing” can feel completely out of alignment with a creative soul. \nThis gentle\, beginner-friendly workshop is here to change that! \nIn this class\, I’ll walk you step-by-step through setting up simple social media accounts (Facebook and Instagram)\, connecting them together\, and learning how to share your art in a way that feels authentic\, natural\, and true to who you are. We’ll focus on showcasing not just your finished pieces\, but the heart\, process\, and story behind them—because people don’t just connect with art\, they connect with the artist. \nWe’ll also talk about the emotional side of sharing:\n• The fear of being “seen”\n• Feeling awkward about posting\n• The disappointment when something doesn’t sell\n• The belief that you shouldn’t “put yourself out there” \nThis is not about becoming famous or chasing trends.\nThis is about honoring your gifts\, letting your work be witnessed\, and giving others the opportunity to connect with what you create. \nYou’ll leave with:\n✔ A Facebook and Instagram account set up and linked\n✔ A simple understanding of what to post (and when)\n✔ Easy photo tips using just your phone\n✔ Caption templates you can reuse again and again\n✔ A renewed confidence in sharing your art with the world \nYou don’t have to be tech-savvy. You don’t have to be perfect.\nYou just have to be willing to take one small step forward! \nYour art matters… and someone out there is waiting to see it. \nAttendees\, please bring: your phone\, tablet or laptop (if possible!) Otherwise there will be handouts for you to implement these steps at your home computer.

SUMMARY:Artist Reception: Jean Crocker
DESCRIPTION:We’re thrilled to welcome Jean Crocker as our next featured artist at Glädje\, beginning February 1\, with a special artist opening on Friday\, February 13 from 4:30–8:00 PM. \nJean’s work is rooted in traditional watercolor methods\, layered with acrylics and unexpected materials like rice paper\, tissue\, gesso\, and gel medium. Her paintings range from realistic to abstract\, always holding onto a sense of place\, emotion\, and humanity. With a background in commercial art\, drafting\, and technical illustration—and years of study under nationally known watercolor artists—Jean brings both precision and play to her work. \nThis opening is designed to feel like a gentle pause in winter and a warm lead-in to Valentine’s weekend. Think chocolate\, wine\, coffee\, light snacks\, soft conversation\, and art that invites you to slow down and feel alive! \nWhether you’re coming with a partner\, a friend\, or just yourself\, we invite you to gather with us\, meet the artist\, and celebrate creativity\, connection\, and the joy of making. \n💌 Free & open to the public🎨 Exhibition runs beginning February 1; with Artist Reception February 13
