An "art show and tell for adults" is essentially a gathering where people bring a piece of art they've created or are particularly fond of, share it with the group, and discuss its significance, story behind it, artistic techniques used, or the emotions it evokes - similar to a traditional "show and tell" but focused on art, designed for an adult audience with more in-depth conversation and analysis.

Any artist or art lover can participate.  You'll have up to 5 minutes to show your art, discuss your technique or ask for feedback.  We'll then open the discussion to the group to ask questions, give comments or impressions. 

What should you bring?  A drawing, painting, small sculpture, photo reference of art that inspires you, fiber art, etc.  Everyone should bring something.  We'll have easels to display two dimensional art and a projector to display digital images to the group.
