We both had a great time and enjoyed meeting everyone.\u00a0The \u00a0kids had a fabulous afternoon and I&#8217;ll bet some of those kids will be begging their parents for pc supplies.<\/p>\n<p>The Manatee Public Library-Palmetto Branch at\u00a0923 6th Street West in\u00a0Palmetto, FL \u00a0is the meeting place for the FGPCG. They have been meeting in the large room with tables, chairs and a kitchen all for free. For 3 years the guild has enjoyed these arrangements and wanted to give back the to library and the community.<\/p>\n<p>The library&#8217;s Assistant Branch Manager, Debbie Reagan was please with the response and hoped to be able to do it again. She&#8217;s sure the interest is there, over 20 children were on the waiting list.<\/p>\n<p>Sydney Carter, Marcia Kaszuba and Rachel Kindon all took a few minutes to do short demos to introduce pc to the kids. Several members manned the ovens that baked all those wonderful creations from those inspired young artists. I met Sydney and Rachel Kindon at Orlando Clay Fandango this year and it was great to see them again.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1900\" style=\"width: 334px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/polymerclayetc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/FCPCG_7.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1900\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1900\" title=\"Sydney Carter\" src=\"http:\/\/polymerclayetc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/FCPCG_7.jpg\" alt=\"Sydney Carter\" width=\"324\" height=\"261\" srcset=\"http:\/\/polymerclayetc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/FCPCG_7.jpg 324w, http:\/\/polymerclayetc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/FCPCG_7-300x241.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 324px) 100vw, 324px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1900\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sydney Carter<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Sydney Carter showed the children a pen covered with clay as an example of what they could make with polymer clay that very afternoon.<\/p>\n<p>It you live in the area, you might want to give FGPCG a visit and join in the fun.
