To Whom it May Concern,

Marilyn Allen from the River Gallery School has been leading the Senior Center art class in sequencing and oil painting. It has been an exciting experience for all of us who attend on a weekly basis. Everyone is welcomed regardless of previous art experiences. We are encouraged to share our feelings and frustrations and to give and to take advice from our peers as well as from our instructor. Each week we arrive with renewed enthusiasm to work on a piece in progress or on something new. We see the progress made by our fellow classmates as well as in ourselves. We are elated - truly thrilled - whenever Marilyn holds up a completed work of one of us for all to see. This is such a positive way for all of us seniors to grow in our artistic endeavors and to add fulfillment to our lives.

Let's keep this class going!
