Theme Challenge for May: New Beginnings

Join us at the May Monthly meeting of  Arts Alliance of Stratford. Meet and network with other local creative people.

In May, we are well into Springtime, but the new leaves on the trees and early flowers give us a glimpse that Summer is on the way. May is a time for new gardens, graduations, weddings and sometimes new careers.

Just as the butterfly emerges from the chrysalis, we emerge from our winter coats sweaters and the shelter of our warm homes. May is a time of renewal and new beginnings.

You can use the photo of the butterfly emerging from its cocoon as a starting point to make it your own (download your own copy from pixabay.com), or follow your own inspiration and create something new and unexpected.

Grab your paints, pencils, writing pad or other creative implements and make something inspired based on New Beginnings. Use the theme to create something unique. Follow your imagination where it takes you.

The challenge is open to visual art, writing, poetry, music or performance.

Each month the challenge theme is announced at the end of the monthly meeting. The finished challenge work will be presented at the following meeting.
