August 25, 2012
TraillWorks is gearing up for the Fall and with all that we are planning, we've decided to increase our newsletter publication from once to twice a month. We're trying to make it easier for you to find the creative outlet that most suits you, whether it's  collecting or creating art.
 
In this issue I'm looking for volunteers to help me Teal Newton; offering several incentives to buy art and enroll early in lessons and workshops; announcing new workshops, and making a BIG announcement! Enjoy the read and the last few weeks of Summer.
Creatively,

Teal with Me!
In support of Ovarian Cancer Awareness.


Again this year I have volunteered to "Teal" the town of Newton in support of ovarian cancer awareness. Many of you know that I have worked with Turn the Towns Teal, Inc. each year that I have been in business, both by donations through sales and tealing Spring Street. I will be doing both again this year. Throughout the month of September I will donate 10% of all jewelry and scarf sales to Turn the Towns Teal, Inc. which aims to raise awareness of ovarian cancer and its silent symptoms.
 
I could use your help to Teal Newton and distribute symptom cards. I would like to "teal" Spring Street on Tuesday, September 4th at 9:30am. Email me if you can assist in any way.
 
 
25% off all Artisan Jewelry
now through August 31st
 
Only one more week to save on one of a kind, artisan jewelry at the gallery. We're hoping to clear out some older works to make room for new.

Lessons
 
FINAL DAYS to SAVE 5% on ENROLLMENT
Saturday is the final day to enroll and save 5% on tuition for the Fall session. Since enrollment has opened, we've added and changed a few things to our schedule. A Saturday 10am teen class has opened and the Tuesday evening teen class will likely no longer be available. I have some adults interested in a Saturday and an evening time slot. I also may be extending my Tuesday 1pm class by a half hour for an extended lesson. If you're interested in any of these options, please email me at lessons@traillworks.com so I can add you to my list. 
 
Learn more about the Fall session or enroll online at http://www.traillworks.com/lesson.html.
 
To learn more about the lessons and upcoming classes at TraillWorks take a look at our Lessons page.

IT'S COMPLETE!!!!

The final window of the mural is completed and all have been varnished. The mural at St. Joseph's Regional School is now finished. I won't reveal the entire completed mural until the dedication ceremony, so you'll have to come see it for yourself. It's likely to be a public event potentially in October; stay tuned! View the entire mural progress on the TraillWorks' Facebook page.
