Sheryl Reeser, one of the Art Guild’s most popular teachers, is offering a half-day workshop titled “Watercolor on Rice Paper.” It is scheduled for Saturday, Nov. 14, from 9 a.m. to noon. Held at the Plateau Creative Arts Center, 451 Lakeview Road, in Fairfield Glade, the cost will be $20 ($15 for members).

Reeser states that participants will learn how to prepare rice paper so that a painting can be designed and completed on it. “This is such an exciting workshop,” says Le Vos, exhibits coordinator for the Art Guild at Fairfield Glade. “Sheryl is a seasoned teacher who has the ability to teach all levels of skill so that the students are well pleased with their results. The rice paper brings such a rich texture to the painting, that it invites innovation and originality. It’s a great opportunity to expand one’s creativity, no matter your experience with watercolor.”

The Art Guild at Fairfield Glade is a non-profit, equal opportunity provider whose purpose is the cultivation of the fine arts in the community. The Plateau Creative Arts Center is a first rate teaching facility. To register for this and other classes, contact the Plateau Creative Arts Center at 707-7249 and secure your reservation with your payment (credit cards acceptable) or mail your check payable to the Art Guild at Fairfield Glade, P.O.

The River WILD!
The Big South Fork of the Cumberland River winds its way through the 125,000 acres of the Big South Fork National River and Recreation Area before flowing into the Cumberland River and Lake Cumberland in Kentucky. It’s a free-flowing river, with no dams to control release of the water, but the scenery and the magnificent rock formations make it a favorite of paddling enthusiasts who watch the weather to see if they can get out and explore areas that are hard to reach by foot.

Farmer's Market opens for business June 2
The Cumberland County Farmer’s Market will officially open the growing season as it has every year since 1978. This year’s “opening” will be Saturday, June 2, at the traditional location on Livingston Rd., next to the fairgrounds. Selling will begin early (6:30 a.m. or so), although some vendors may set up a few hours later in order to provide the freshest vegetables picked just that morning. There is usually a good selection until well after noon.
