Special to the Times Vedette

Free art projects were provided on Aug. 31 in the Ron Eike building at the Guthrie County Fair. Cathy Ballard from Art on State, along with four helpers, coordinated three art projects to create tile coasters, personal signs and tic tac toe games. Children, and some adults, started by using stencils with paint markers. Cindy Steensen was the supervisor with approximately 70 participants.
