crossroads artists group

We launched the artist groups fall session last night by touring the Carousel Works - what an amazing creative place! Each time I see it I am surprised it is right here in Mansfield. It is the WORLDS largest manufacturer of wooden carousels! Currently they are restoring the old Geauga lake carousel ( the pictures of the cherubs and large group of horses are from Geauga Lake) they are working on a LA carousel and they are receiving a couple items at a time from the Central Park carousel in New York! They also build brand new carousels - they do the ones on the cruise ships as well! So beautiful!

This Fall our group is visiting each members home or place of employment to become more familiar with how they spend their days or their creative time! So much fun! Our visit in a couple of weeks will be to one of our members homes where he is doing creative work with cement.

This is such a great way to really get to know one another and fellowship at the same time!
