The KENDALL ART GALLERY, home of the SAN ANGELO ART CLUB, has opened the Benge Studio for children and adult art classes and workshops.  Renovations on the outside of the building started last year.  Now the spacious studio has been restored to its former self, a place for artists to meet and learn new techniques from other artists.  The SAN ANGELO ART CLUB has installed a new air conditioning unit for the studio, purchased a mylar overhead demo mirror, and a large light table has been donated.  The Benge Studio was built in 1952 in memory of Marion Goldwire Benge
by her family.

Space is available for Workshops and classes.

The KENDALL ART GALLERY is open Wednesday 9am to 1pm and Saturday and Sunday 1-4 pm.
Call the Gallery at 653-4405 during open hours for more information.
