In May, we wrapped up our first season of the Healing Through Art program collaboration with the Stephan Center with Kathryn Duncan helping the kids make greeting cards, and Chris Frausto teaching teens about the art of altered books. If you want to learn about altered books, Chris will be holding a workshop at CAA on July 9th.
On Saturday, June 4, Becky Floyd and Laureen Pedroza volunteered at the Corona Rotary Club's Lobsterfest silent auction. Several CAA members donated artwork to the silent auction, which the Rotary generously split with CAA 50/50. Thanks to everyone, CAA earned $435!
The Corona Art Association will once again be a featured vendor at the Corona Night Markets through this summer! Come visit us! Members, please reach out to Laureen if you can help staff.
