We are excited for our 2024 instructor, Lee Griffiths! We are working out the details of this class as I write this article, so there is more to come. Our group is mostly word of mouth. Diane Simpson has started a Facebook and Instagram page. We also communicate via Messenger for our classes so everyone gets all the proper information and “show and tells” of our progress! In 2023, we were fortunate enough to have tables at FEGA where 7 of our members displayed their work, and 3 members also had their own tables! The table allowed us to show our work individually but also as a group and enlighten the public about women engravers. The future of Lady Sharpshooters is bright! We are fortunate to have future instructors in the wings and past instructors returning. The excitement, enthusiasm, and hunger to learn from the best of the best will hopefully keep us all learning for years to come. Our group has come a long way from the first day of class with Rex Pedersen. Our members are diverse, with different skill sets and goals, but we have become a family of friends with similar interests. Although our classes are intense, we find time to fit in jokes and many laughs! We enjoy the camaraderie and the willingness of everyone to help each other — we are each other’s cheerleaders!
