San Jose. History Park, San Jose, Sunday, November 14, 2021

On Sunday November 14, Hospitality and Weekend Paintsites held the first joint outdoor gathering at San Jose History Park. We were blessed by warm and sunny weather and were treated to the sounds of the historic trolley and fully open O’Brien’s Ice Cream Parlor.  History Park was festive with both its Halloween and Holiday decorations. 


We had a great turnout 20 painters: Anne P, Oksana, Lin, Masako, Monique 
Lisa B, Susan J, Susan BG, Jane P, Jane S, Brad, Dick, Salinda, Helen, Lora, Kris, Alison, Karen, Liz and Linda P.

Thanks to all the enthusiastic attendees or making this a successful event. And special thanks to Karen for the yummy treats and refreshments, Tanvi for her newsletter magic, Brad - our behind the scenes McGiver - for his easels, and paint site directional sign, Susan J for the use of her easels, and Lora and Susan their digital outreach. It truly is a community!
