TAG at SFCC

The Artists’ Group (TAG) at SFCC are local artists who meet regularly at the Hotel Jacaranda to develop their individual talents and to promote an appreciation of art and artistic expression. This member-centered program offers a forum for individual and creative artistic collaboration, as well as a venue for art instruction and display. Twenty members of the community received instruction in painting and jewelry-making in 2008.
