Sign up sheet will be on a clipboard near the sink, right by the front door.

For those of you who have been waiting to paint - now is the time to come and join the fun! We have painting projects in a variety of skill levels, including basic/no skills. We also have a few building projects, so if that is your interest, please bring your drill/driver and come on over! It is so much fun to see the sets evolve and then to be proud of your small (or large) contribution when you see them on stage! There are only three weekends left to finish everything... so please help all you can!
