Artists in Smithfield

What a great night. I went to a meeting with the Johnston County Artists Guild. What a great group of people. I think I will try to attend their next meeting and see if I can join. Felt right at home. Its been a long time since I have been in a group of strangers and felt immediately OK. I guess its the art. I really believe if we can get the art community going here the town will gain so much. I think the Johnston County Arts Council in Clayton is very important. Its the big guns and money, lots of connected people. But here in Smithfield we could have that funky art community. There are so many artists here and they are so unconnected to the citizens. This artists guild is a very good thing. They were all encouraging. Spoke to them about the Smithfield Poster. All were excited!
