The networking and inspiration that occurs among any and all artists as a result of the shared Red Door Studio space challenges the artists to expand their skills, explore new mediums, and make advancements in their artistic work that may result in an arts workshop or more new works of art to be exhibited at the county fair and other venues. Reflections and feedback from the artists related to these outcomes will be noted in individual artist idea journals and shared with the group at meetings and recorded in the monthly minutes.
As a result of the first year of CAS grant funding the Lake of the Woods Art Guild experienced a 195% increase in attendance at monthly meetings held at the Red Door Studio. Mini-workshops were held prior to each meeting where those in attendance learned new skills. Some of the workshops were watercolor, mat cutting, needle felting, acrylic paint pouring, and alcohol ink painting. All meetings are open to the public.
