September 2017

For our September meeting we will be having a combination of Ice Cream Social and Paint Party.

The Ice Cream Social has become an ATOMS annual tradition. Ice cream, bowls, and utensils are provided along with drinks and cups. All you need to bring is your favorite topping and your sweet tooth.

You don’t need to be an artist to join in the Paint Party, it’s all about relaxing and enjoying what you do. At our last Paint Party members that chose to paint painted anything from a football team logo, to pictures of ice cream cones and landscapes. Paint, brushes, and canvas will be provided. It is recommended that you bring a smock or wear clothing that you don’t care if paint gets on it.
