Our neighbor, Hill Center, offers Knife Skill classes several times every year. To tie in with their ongoing classes (next one is Sept. 16 Wednesday from 6-7:30pm), our challenge art theme for August is Knives Out.

Our artists will be posting images/artwork with the theme: Knives Out. Hill Center staff members will chose ONE favorite “knife” image and award the artist a $20 gift certificate, announced the first week of September. You can reinterpret knives in many ways!
