WHAT A SPECIAL EVENING!

Every year Pomegranate Guild members can hardly wait to see what other members have been working on over the past year.

WE WERE NOT DISAPPOINTED.

President Bruria Cooperman opened the meeting with a “d’var” – a few remarks about engaging in the pleasure and discovery of making. Then, with our theme for the past year “Something from Nothing” (In essence take “nothing” – actually anything from your stash – and create “something”.) the following members presented their somethings and the stories that went along with them. It gave us a rich picture of artistic approaches that our members take to their work. Treat yourself to this unusual eye candy.
