I have only been to one art retreat SO FAR! It was last year's Art & Soul in Hampton VA. Loved it! Wish I could go to many more! Thank you for hosting the give away.

I have not gone to any crafting events and it's probably not going to happen any time soon either. I wish though! Thanks for the giveaway, these are books that I have on my wishlist.

Haven't been to any yet, but am going to attend Craftcation next month! And my sweetie just gave me a gift certificate good for classes at a local paper craft store, so I'll be dropping in to their "open studio" nights.

none, where I live there is nothing - ever. I may try to do something online but probably not.
