May 2013 Creative Journaling with Mary "Casey" Martin...

These classes in May at Let’s Create combine writing and art techniques to start your first or next, journal or book.  The class kits will include, creative book elements taught by Franki along with writing prompts and exercises taught by poet/writer/columnist/book publisher, Mary “Casey” Martin who lives in the Grand Rapids area.  Two sessions, each lasting from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m., are being offered on Wednesdays, May 8th and 15th. Each session is $20.  To register in advance or for more information, call 715-424-1343. We did this concept of combining words and art last year, and wanted to try another version of the class for this year.  Since the class is only two hours, we’ll be able to start everyone on their book journey, and offer plenty of ideas for them to take home. You can take your time in creating this special collection. Good books take time to create and we don’t want anyone to feel rushed to finish. 
        Spring is another season for giving...whether it’s a gift for a graduate, a June bride, or a special anniversary...this year, if you participate in the classes at Let’s Create, you can commemorate the event or special day with a personalized book. If you are ready to take a break during the week, sign up for a class at Let’s Create; you can meet some new faces, learn creative techniques and write all about it.
