Next Location - Mt. Olivet Cemetery
1101 Lebanon Pike - Nashville, TN - 615 255-4193
Saturday - March 1, 2008 - 8:00 am



It's time to crank up again - my weatherperson says it will be 56 Sat. Yeah!
We're going put the winter behind us (bury it) with another cemetery. Those who braved the heat at the Nashville City Cemetery found the subjects really interesting and fun to paint and this should be even better. It's hilly, has lots of history, statues, mausoleums ... ghosts.

We'll start at 8:00 (you're welcome earlier - as long as it's daylight). For the older section, which should be the best for us, take the Right fork after you come in off Lebanon Pike. You can park anywhere along the roads.

I, for one, can't wait to get back to our Saturdays and am hoping many of you agree that there's nothing like fresh air painting ..... especially in a cemetery. Come join us.

Happy painting.
