Apology...Information for Lake Mills!
I have spoken with the woman who has invited us to paint during the Lake Mills art festival this coming Saturday and she has informed me that the woman who volunteered to run the silent auction of our worked has backed out and so they will not have a silent auction. I know this may play into you decision about where to paint on Saturday as it is also the Quick Paint day in Wauwatosa and so I wanted to make you aware of this. ;). See you painting!!!
