Stroll through our "CPC Artist Gallery" to check out the most recent paintings created by the artists participating in a class we offer each month. This is a collaborative piece they created to display while they break for the summer. Watch for details on the class resuming in September.

We are grateful for the leadership of Catherine who facilitates this program and for the artists that share their time and talent and their families that enable them to participate.
