Paint Bowls at Barnabas
We are going to cool this summer down with a Happy Hour with our Friends from the Woman’s Club. We will paint a ceramic bowl to be used at the 13th annual Barnabas Empty Bowls Luncheon. All supplies and ideas will be provided so, come as you are with whatever talent you do or do not possess! It is easy and even more fun with friends! Consider inviting a friend or neighbor who might be interested in joining our Club.
