- The Hickman Middle School After-School Art Club is moving right along. This month they will begin a 2 session project decorating a keepsake box complete with a faux stained glass lid. During the first session, lead by Myra Orton, the students learned how to tape the edges that were not to be painted, sand the sides to be painted and paint their box with milk paint. Next, they taped a design of their choice to the inside of the top and applied a faux liquid leading on the glass top of the box to outline the design. Mrs. Orton is also assisting the students in wood-burning their initials and the date on the bottom of the box. Those assisting from the Guild are Mary Jo Leaver, Nick Leaver and Janet Pierce.
- Our first meeting for 2020 will be Monday, February 17, 2020, at 6 pm. We will meet at the Centerville United Methodist Church in the fellowship hall. If you are facing the church, please enter by the lower level door on your left. Once inside, turn immediately to the right and follow the hallway to the fellowship hall. For directions, call 931.242.0428. All are welcome!
