We thought you'd enjoy another round of online jigsaw puzzles of scenes in North Beach! Remember, you can adjust the number of pieces to make it as easy or as hard as you want. Good luck!

An exhibit by the Studio Art Quilt Associates: Founded in 1989, SAQA now has over 3,600 members, including artists, teachers, collectors, gallery owners, curators, and corporate sponsors. Its mission is to promote art quilts and the artists who make them. Many artist, writers, musicians, and even scientists look to a “muse” as the source of their creativity or genius. Some artists find a muse by exploring their own innate creativity, while others seek experiences or stories to inspire. Works in this exhibition were created by members of SAQA’s DC, MD, and WV region, each working with their own unique muses.

Our Teen Homeschool classes will be in-person meetings because the groups are small enough to participate safely. Staff and participants will need to wear masks. Classes will be outside only and if equipment is needed - each participant will have their own. This winter we will start an exploration of the habitats present at Flag Ponds Nature Park. Teens will meet outside each month and spend the class out hiking the trails - we will explore the park, learn to identify the common plants and animals, build shelters, and whatever the season has to offer. Masks will be needed for all participants.
