Wacky Wednesday!

Written By Kim Joy

Back when I had a studio at the Workhouse Arts Center in Lorton, VA I also taught stained glass at the Art Center on Wednesday nights. Sometimes a group of past students would gather in my studio on non-class Wednesday and this was affectionately called Wacky Wednesday.

One of the regular Wacky Wednesday attendees was Martha Walker. Besides stained glass she also did warm glass. We had a blast working late and listening for the ghosts, sometimes there was movement and it was freaky.

My Wednesday night classes at Art Happens on Tarboro turned into Wacky Wednesday as the class retained regulars. I miss those good old days.

So I have decided to have Wacky Wednesdays in my home studio. I create my own fun and be a little wacky. Fred is all on board for this, he gets to sleep on his studio bed and eat snacks when I change cd’s.

Do you have do anything special on Wacky Wednesday? If so what do you do?
