We welcome March here in the Valley and around the world with brilliant green colors exploding with the brightness that only spring can offer. It’s a wonderful time of the year to be outside drenching ourselves in the easier temperatures and all of nature’s gifts. It is a great time to create a reminder of what gives us so much joy. Come and paint what you love!

The Desert Artists Club (DAC) meets each Tuesday afternoon from 3 to 6 p.m. in the Ceramics Room (A-8) in Cottonwood. We come together to be with other artists and work/play on our own projects. We bring our own supplies and work in our preferred medium. We are a casual club with no meetings or dues. The DAC has been in existence for two decades. Artists come to share with other artists their love of art and to be inspired by what others are creating while we encourage each other. Any artist, or artist in the making, from the three HOAs of Sun Lakes may join. We have many new members who say how nice it is to be among other artists and be accepted for where they are in their journey.

Remember to attend the annual Art at the Lakes on March 9. Look for the Splash articles regarding this wonderful event for all the details. It is right here in our community—such a delight for all who attend. You won’t be disappointed. It is also a fundraiser for the firefighters when they serve their hot dogs and hamburgers for a quick lunch. There are usually about 100 artists who display and sell their art.

If you are new to Sun Lakes or wish to just come and see what we are all about, stop in some Tuesday between 3 and 5 p.m. and check out our group. See if this might be a fit for you.
