Summer Symposium – Tuesday, July 11

On Tuesday, July 11 at 6:00 p.m., Sunnyvale Garden Club is hosting its first summer symposium of the year. We will be creating beautiful coasters for your home (or to give as gifts) using sharpies and alcohol ink art on tiles. The club will provide all the supplies.

This will be held at Barbara Kline’s house. You don’t need to be a member to attend. This is a good way to get to know SGC members in a relaxed, fun atmosphere!

Everyone is asked to please bring a snack to share with the group and Barbara will provide beverages.

At the August 8th Summer Symposium, we will be making cement castings using caladium or small elephant ear leaves. Appetizer type snacks are requested, same as July. 😉
