$10 Donation

We are so excited to host a presentation on an amazing new non-toxic product called Paverpol, which can be used in a variety of different ways from jewelry making, to wire sculptures! It sticks to everything except plastic, makes fabric stiff and moldable, adhere's objects, and so much more! Our presenter, Genie Morgan is an art educator, is the sole proprietor of Integrity Visual Arts, and her website will give you even more inspiration for this amazing new product! PLUS, we'll get to try it out! Bring recycled materials to work with- fabric & paper scraps, old canvas, ribbons, items from nature, wire, buttons, keys, odds and ends, we can trade if you want! Your $10 donation will go toward the use of the product (and if we have enough, maybe some to take home! YAY!) and to reimburse our speaker for imparting her knowledge upon us! We are meeting at the Art Station in Fort Worth at 2pm (the first 30 minutes will be reserved for planning the rest of the NTATA calendar- bring your ideas with you!)
