Euclid Art Association

Welcome to the Euclid Art Association...

The new 2025-2026 season starts with an in-person meeting on
Monday, September 8 at 7:00p.m.
in Fellowship Hall, East Shore United Methodist Church, 23002 Lakeshore Blvd, Euclid. It's the second Monday in the month due to Labor Day! Remember to BYOT (Bring Your Own Treats) to share with 6 to 8 people after the meeting. All are welcome to attend. Guest fee is a $3.00 donation.

We are featuring a demonstration by member artist, Alsie Clay titled "Sand Mandalas, a Shared Experience". This promises to be a very unique experience. Alsie will be asking the audience to participate with her in creating a Mandala using sand, as she explains this creative "gift" received from God, the result of a near death experience. Alsie is an amazing person with an incredible bio. She is a Kinetic Energy Worker and certified Teaching Artist. She owns "Artisan's Treasure, Studio of Exquisite Designs, Jewelry, and Healing Through the Creative Arts, Symposia," since 2010, at the Shore Cultural Centre, Euclid, OH. Her favorite artistic media include energetic watercolor, gemstone jewelry creation, clothing design, kinetic sand mandalas, and meaningful digital art pieces. Come to the meeting and learn more about her. Join in the fun of creating a mandala!

THE MANY SPECIAL THANKS CONTINUE. . .

Art for the masses.

SPECIAL THANK YOU AND TRIBUTE TO . . . Member, Kirk Ramsey retired as Euclid Art Association's webmaster at the end of May, a position held since joining EAA in 2013. After being the webmaster for more than twelve years, Kirk said, "I gracefully bow out and give my regards to the Euclid Art Association, wishing you well as you move forward into the brave new world of your new, improved website and all that it offers." In recent months Kirk has assisted in the transition to Jim Owens, a new member with the necessary skills. Kirk Ramsey has set a high bar for all members to use one's own skillset to step up and fill a need. We are grateful for his countless hours of service to the Euclid Art Association. "Kirk, enjoy your new found free time and don't be a stranger!" READ the complete tribute on the Events page.

When EAA membership year ends on June 30, Sue Herrle's longtime service as secretary will also come to an end. A recognition was read at the June meeting. "Her dependable service has left this organization better than it was." Her husband Tom was ever present and "available to mind the door or help with hanging shows, not to mention taste testing the treats from the table. Sue has set a high bar for the many jobs that she did so well, and Euclid Art can best honor her by using the example of her high standards."
