Offering various workshops open to the public is a new venture being established by members of the Nescatunga Arts and Humanities Council.

The first workshop planned will be a First Friday Artwalk event on Friday, March 1, from 6:30-7:30 p.m. on the second floor of the Runnymede where participants will learn to create sugar roses using fondant. The workshop is $25 and is limited to 10 people.

Also, as part of the First Friday events that evening on the main level of the Runnymede, artwork will be displayed by members of Northwestern Oklahoma State University’s visual arts program. David Poindexter, associate professor of visual arts, and Thomas Cornell, assistant professor of visual arts, will join their students to display their work.

The art display will be open from 6-8 p.m.
