Are you having trouble getting started on a creative project?
Do you need a space to work on your art, away from the distractions of home?
Would you find it helpful to bounce ideas off other creatives?
Come join other members of the Malta League of Arts (MLA) for a monthly open studio.
Once a month between 5:30 – 7:45 pm
Malta Community Center, 1 Bayberry Drive, Ballston Spa.
Room 105
2023 Dates are Wednesday, November 8th and Wednesday, December 13
——————————————————————————————————
All are welcome! Coffee with Creatives is FREE for MLA members and $5 for non-members. You can become a member any time at MaltaLeagueOfArts.org or at the event.
Space may be limited, so e-mail us at MaltaLArts@gmail.com to guarantee a spot. Walk-ins will be welcome until the space reaches capacity.
+Bring whatever project you’re working on or want to start (see suggestions below*). Or just bring an open mind to fill with creative ideas.
+Come and go as you please. Stop in for 30 minutes or stay all evening. There will be 5 - 10 minutes of announcements from the MLA Board at 6:00 pm.
+All levels of artists, writers, designers and crafters are welcome, from beginner to expert.
+You’ll need to bring your own materials and supplies, but we’ll provide a covered work surface and some light refreshments. You are welcome to bring your own non-alcoholic beverage, snack or even dinner.
+You can work at a table with others and share ideas and conversation, or you can put on your headphones and work by yourself. This is your time to be creative with whatever method works best for you!
+You don’t have to live in Malta to join the Malta League of Arts or to participate in Coffee with Creatives or any of our other activities.
*Optional: Bring any craft supplies you no longer need for our craft swap table.
We ask that out of respect for other participants you refrain from bringing glues or sprays with harmful fumes.
No profanity or nudity, please, as this is a family-friendly environment.
If you have any questions, please contact us at MaltaLArts@gmail.com. Someone will get back to you within 24 hours.
*Some projects that will work well at this Open Studio are painting, sewing, scrapbooking, knitting, crocheting, printmaking, mosaics (but no glass cutting), collage, wreaths, jewelry making, drawing, sculpture, writing, wood burning, digital art, journaling, embroidery, etc.
