Hi Mary Lou,
Just wanted to remind you that if you or any of the gals you paint with would like to come down to Seaside to the OPAR school, Kathy Peterson of "The Good Stuff" store from Denver, Co, will be our white china dealer. Her hours will be 8-5 Tue. and Friday, and then 8-7 Weds. and Thurs. Also evening after classes 5:30 - 7:00 pm we will be having an open market and this is where anyone can sell any of their hand made products.These are not necessarily painted porcelain pieces. We have beads, frames, matts-(maybe) and other odds an ends. All of you are welcomed. Hope to see ya there.
