Little Artshram
Dear friends,
We still have four spaces left in this week of Guild-Building and Mentor Training at Little Artshram.
Contact penny@littleartshram. org, if you may want to jump on board at the last minute! We would especially like to encourage a few more youth in the apprentice positions, so please share this with others, 16 years and older if you think they may benefit!

As soon as I hear from the first four folks, I’ll send off the AVIT (Apprentice, Volunteer, Intern and Teacher) Program Handbook and Daily Schedule along with homework assignments! I suggest you download or view the handbook first, which will direct you to the other attachments along with a few directions.
The AVIT Program Handbook provides you with basic information to get you to the Guild-Building and Mentor Training with directions, needs lists and assignments. The schedule may get tweaked a bit, as we still have some confirmations coming from out of town presenters.
Carol Laughing Waters will be one of the guest presenters.
It’s going to be a great week: Here’s the basic scoop:
