I posted all the Art Happens on Tarboro classes and events on the calendar tab on the website.  Some new classes and some oldie but goodie classes too!

As July gets closer what are your plans for the month? Any projects in the works? Unfinished projects that are calling your name to wrap them up? Taking any trips? Let me know what's going on with you.

Keep art in your heart!

 Well with the help of friends David and Dani, Art Happens has merged with Kim S. Joy Stained Glass. So much better to have all under one website. One calendar, one events page and one blog! Let me know what you think!

You can visit Art Happens via my YouTube Channel if you have had a chance to visit the studio in person. I hope to get more videos up of work in process and tips/tricks.  Here is another video form the studio. What kind of videos would you like to see?

A big shoutout to Andrea Horton Morton for helping with the videos today.

Copper Necklace Workshop for GPO
Flower in my garden
Dreamcatchers by Judy Aycok
New pieces came in this past week- Dreamcatchers by Judy Aycock. She does custom dreamcatchers and of course flat dreamcatchers.

GPO (Girls Pint Out) are coming later this month to make the Copper Necklace. It is a fun stress relieving class. Nothing like ladies wielding hammers smacking copper wire on steel blocks!

Hope everyone is enjoying their summer! Hard to believe that July is just around the corner.

Remember to keep art in your heART

Good morning all! It is a beautiful day out. Fred and I went on 3 walks before I came Downtown, he loves his walks. We chased squirrels, young chickens, a feral man cat and a few birds. He also said good morning to the little feral girl cat Mittens, he loves her and she allows him to smell her and she rubs up against him. photo looks like she is trying to eat him but he is really trying to reach her and say hi!

Stopped by the Post Office to mil a package to California- so there are 3 different Priority Envelopes and they are different prices ranging from $7.35 to 9.30. Of course I had packed the $9.30 one! Learn new things everyday! Hope you like the shirt Meagan.

Then a quick stop at the Wilson Farmers & Artisans Market. Picked up some Lemon Cucumbers, my favorite! Sliced by themselves, sliced in a salad, however you use cucumbers, they are amazing. Trying a Lemon Cucumber Tofu Salad for dinner tonight.

Tried to stop at the bank to make a deposit but BBT was closed this am. Did you read about the merge with Suntrust? The new is going to be..... Truist! What? I do not know how they figured that name out. They just better be open Monday! For info go here: ​https://www.msn.com/en-us/finance/news/bb-26t-suntrust-announce-merger-to-become-truist/vi-AACN5Xt
​

So now I need to get to work after all that lollygagging. Today's project is cutting out a chevron necklace and promoting the RAW Arise show I will be in July 11 at The Ritz in Raleigh. You can check out my artist page, tickets are available through my page. Please come and support Local Artists!

It has been beautiful out Friday and Saturday, a breeze and sun sometimes hiding behind clouds. Just beautiful days. In the studio I have gotten the new artwork hung, my photo station is set up, a commission piece designed, my artist notebook updated and new classes planned for next 6 months! 

Construction on Tarboro Street is moving along and construction on the store next door has started. Progress everywhere you look. It is exciting to see new businesses popping up all over. Won't you be my neighbor! Really though there are storefronts for sale and the timing is right!

Cindy with her first repair job! A winged cardinal that had broken wings. What a job!  But patience and perseverance paid off. Great job Cindy and doesn't she look happy!

So Art Happens on Tarboro website has merged with Kim S. Joy Stained Glass and Jewelry. It is nice to have it all under one roof. So when you type in Art Happens on Tarboro it actually brings you to the older website which is still live. Let me know what you think and any suggestions are always welcome.

How is you summer shaping up? Hope you are having a good one and have lots of fun planned.

Remember to keep art in your heart!
​Kim
