Review of The Arts for Life


The Arts of Life in Glenview is a studio that artists with all abilities can come together to create art.  Each artist has their own style of art. Some of the artists need adapted tools like thicker paint brushes the staff and volunteers are great to help them out. Once a month their a studio meeting the community come to together talk about  events they had or the events coming up, or anything have to do with how the studio is  run. The studio have a band called van Go Go. the band recorded a c d title Van Go Go.
I am an artist and their archiver. The staff is super helpful in adapting ways making my job easier
