:: Box Social and General Membership Meeting ::


Saturday, June 6th at 5:00pm
Dawn Atkin’s House:
1551 East Claridge Dr. (4040 South) in Salt Lake City

An evening of great food and conversation with a souvenir. What more can you want from a Saturday evening? Spouses/ dates are welcome. Members are invited to bring a piece of work in the theme of "box." After a light dinner we will vote on the favorite boxes of the night and then exchange them by random drawing. One box per artist please. The theme is designed to be a challenge and a chance to push our skills and creativity. So have fun with the theme. Some past entries have included a sculpture of “Bach", a perfect replica of an Orton Cone Box, and a vase with a box around the neck. Visit the Resource library for ideas on how to make boxes or take a peak at some of the last year's boxes at www.clayartsutah.org/BoxSocial.
