We would like you to join us for our Artist Success Circle a gathering where we share our ideas and have fun with other creative people. We meet once a month at the Scala Art Center for a discussion on the groups chosen topics.

We are a community of artists who would like to share their passion for art with others. We have a local space for children and adults to learn, share, and create art. We are offering classes, workshops, also we have scheduled monthly art shows, and will be inviting local artists to join our Artists Success Circle as an opportunity to network and exchange information. This group has been very successful thus far with great supportive people that share there experience. We have also enjoyed field trips and outings together. This creative group is inspirational! See our updates and endeavors on my blog. http://lisascala.blogspot.com/

We will be picking up with a discussion about the Artist's Way book by Julia Cameron. This was our summer homework to keep the group on course. Please join us in September. Date to be announced.

Thanks Lisa Scala

WOW what a great movie! "Who Does She Think She Is?"

We had our Artist Success Circle  movie "Who Does She Think She Is?"by Pamela Tanner Boll. Thank you everyone for sharing this inspiring movie with us it was a great success with our fabulous discussion after. If you get a chance to see this documentary do! The movie came with discussion cards that I thought I would share with you.

I've had to put my art in the background and I struggle with that every day."

1st Artist Success Circle

We have created the Artist Success Circle for artists and creative people to get together and share their ideas and to network. We want this to be a safe place to get support and have fun. We are having our first meeting Monday March 15th at 5:30 (at the Scala Art Center 28 West Main St. Georgetown MA 01833) to plan what we would like to get out of this group and what this group can give back. We are planning events and topics for the future meetings. We want this group to be open to the creative community. We have a movie night planned, it is the inspiring "Who Does She Think She Is?" It is an inspiring and heart felt movie for creative women. We were also thinking of some field trips: museums, hikes, art openings and more. Ideas for happenings at the center: guest speakers, business topics, demos, workshops, share books etc.

Please join us and bring your best ideas. ScalaArtCenter.com (978) 352-8614
