BAS brings more ART into its Monthly Meetings With the new year, BAS will try out a new meeting format. Our first half hour will remain a informational/news/events discussion period. The last hour of each meeting will now be either an art workshop (that can include a hands on art activity or an artist resource exchange) or an artists dialogue discussion. No art experience is necessary to participate in the hands on workshops and all members are encouraged to bring materials (if they have them) and join in on whatever level they feel comfortable. Each art workshop will be hosted/coordinated by a different BAS member. Other Art workshop ideas include the following: Breaking the Artists Block
