I'm Mary, the Education Director at CAL and if I reach my goal I will challenge my co-workers to a CRAFT OFF! We'll each make the craft I've picked out and post the results on social media.
I love allll kinds of art forms including paper making, painting, and cardboard sculpture. If I can use a cardboard tube, I am a happy camper! I made a life-sized Nutcracker last year out of found objects!
The Columbia Art League supports artists ages 5-105+ throughout their artistic journey. We offer art classes, opportunities to sell work, show art in our gallery, and hire artists to teach our classes.
We also have many outreach events and opportunities for underserved community members so that everyone can experience the arts.
Our biggest community event is our annual art fair, Art in the Park, where over 100 artists exhibit and sell their work at Stephens Lake Park. This event is free and open to the public and aligns with our belief that art is essential to the human experience. Through the arts we can communicate, express, critically think, and experience empathy.
