    Details to follow

    Fun fact: Founding member, Larry Brady, designed the logo for the La Mirada Theater.

    As conceived by founding member, Kitty Maryatt, the plan is for you, as an attendee, to bring a favorite piece of calligraphy you own, by another artist. We'll display it on tables or easels, or even leaning against a wall. We'll mingle and discuss the art <smile>. (Please don't worry if you don't have anything to bring--others will be happy to bring more than one!). We plan to provide hor d'euvres and beverages!

    Kristi will be happy to help arrange carpools.  Won't it be fun to extend the artistic discussion as you travel to and from this event!
