Charlene Smith

As President of the Channel Islands Gourd Society I have learned that there are three major things each of our members receive from their participation.

We LEARN, we CREATE and most importantly, we SHARE our artwork. I feel our society has grown in mind and in heart by learning and sharing their tricks and tips of the trade. It is also fun to see the enthusiasm we each share when we present our artwork. The pride and creativity we present is a reward that is unmatched.

Each month we will strive to expand our knowledge of this intricate and challenging hobby that has grown in popularity over the years. I invite you to join our "patch" of friends and become a member of the Channel Islands Gourd Society today. I look forward to learning, creating and sharing with you.
