Open House at new location of The Drawing Studio

I’ve taken art classes from the talented folks at The Drawing Studio, now located at 2760 N. Tucson Blvd. (SE corner of E. Glenn St).  I reported on their move from downtown 6th Avenue in March: https://blogforarizona.net/the-drawing-studio-moving-to-new-location/

Join these artistic people for a fun open house on May 17, 2 to 4 p.m. as they show off their new studio and share information about their upcoming summer classes for adults and children.

Press release : Courtney Frogge has officially filed to run for State House in Legislative District 10.

 “I was raised to believe that if you work hard and play by the rules, the State of Arizona was full of opportunity and you could have a piece of the American dream – a quality public education, start a business, raise a family, and have a secure retirement. This was true for generations and can be true again, which is why I am running for State House in Legislative District 10,” Courtney Frogge explained.

 With the announcement, also came strong local and statewide support. In the first days of the campaign, Courtney Frogge has earned the endorsements of Representative Bruce Wheeler, who is vacating the seat, as well as district incumbents Senator David Bradley and Representative Stefanie Mach.
