Oswegoland Woman's Civic Club Holding Membership Drive

The following was provided by the Oswegoland Woman's Civic Club:

May 20^th is the date, 6:30 p.m. is the time, and Studio 60 is the place for prospective new members to meet with the Oswegoland Woman’s Civic Club (Oswego & beyond Woman’s Club) to learn more about the club while painting a picture you get to take home and imbibing in drink, refreshments, and conversation to learn more about each other.

Studio 60 is located at 60 Main St., Oswego.  Owners Gayle Faber and Amanda Marks will help you create your masterpiece by providing the canvas, paints, and instruction to produce a painting called, “The Dreaming Tree”.  The Woman’s Club will help you pay for the $30 fee by paying $10 of your cost.  More information about Studio 60 is available at www.studio60onmain.com, or Studio60onmain@yahoo.com, or 630-453-8885. 

The Oswegoland Woman’s Civic Club was founded in 1928, so you can imagine the many projects they have been involved in.  One of them, the Art Appreciation Program at all of our District 308 elementary schools was begun by the club as Picture Lady and continues today.  Two graduating students, one from OHS and one from OEHS, win a $1000 scholarship each year.  Additional projects are PJs for Mutual Ground, Kendall County Food Pantry, Tiller’s, Hands of Hope for cancer treatment center, flower planting at Welcome to Oswego sign, Veterans, and more. 

Following are some of the ways members personally benefit:  a chance to meet women in your area with interests like yours including monthly Dinner with Friends, enrich your personal and leadership skills, community involvement, informative programs to learn what’s going on around you, and so much more, all while giving you a great feeling by doing for others so much more than you could do on your own. 

Sound like fun?  If you’re interested in joining us at Studio 60 and learning more about the Oswego(land) Woman’s Civic Club in a painting setting, please call Membership Judy Smith, 630-554-8097 or Vice President Penny Glassman, 630-708-7109 for more information.  Hope to see you there!
