Angela Monet Maxson | January Artist of the Month
Artist Reception: January 11, 2020 4:00-7:00pm
Join us Saturday January 11 from 4-7pm to meet January’s Artist of the Month, Angela Monet Maxson.
This event is FREE and Open to the Public
Angela Monet Maxson
Hello, My name is Angela Monet Maxson (Angela Monet). I was born and raised here in Stockton, CA. I have been working in healthcare for over 20 years, but in my spare time, I love to do all things art. I call it therapy, because of the joy it brings. I enjoy making greeting cards and doodling. I just started painting about four years ago, and I’m still learning new techniques. Painting was always a challenge before, but I think I have the hang of it. I love working with acrylic paints, watercolors, and alcohol ink sprays. In the near future, I hope to get a book published with my artwork. I hope that you enjoy my art, and if you would like to see more, feel free to browse through my social media sites:

Thank you!

On Giving Tuesday, we raised $840 for the Stockton Art League through the generous donation by community members. Our $500 goal will go towards funding programs and a stretch goal of almost $400 will go towards building new pedestals for the Goodwin Gallery.
GivingTuesday is a global generosity movement unleashing the power of people and organizations to transform their communities and the world on December 3, 2019.
A big Thank You to the following for supporting our online fundraiser Dec 3, 2019!

Classes on Saturdays: March 2020
Mission Statement of the Stockton Art League Youth Art Program
To provide low cost, high quality art instruction to the youth of Stockton, and to instill in them an appreciation of the arts as an process in all endeavors, and a discovery of the power of creativity.
Cost: $20 for the series of four classes. All proceeds go toward the class materials and instruction. Payment options: signup at the Elsie May Goodwin Gallery or pay online at www.squareup.com/store/stocktonartleague
This program is funded in part by a grant sponsored by the Stockton Arts Commission.
Instruction will focus on the basics of drawing, including multiple media studies in value, perspective, composition, contour drawing, positive vs. negative space, and color theory. Students must sign up for the entire series, and the classes will be filled on a first come, first serve basis. There will be a waiting list in case of cancellations. Scholarships are available.
Student Testimonies:
"I'd like longer classes,..."
"My kids are over the moon about the classes,"
"...making the stamps" [the project I liked the most with Ms. B]
"t...he detailed explanations and attentions to each student" [with Stephen Coyle]
"...loved the clay making."
"[It was suggested] we get Andy Warhol for future workshop demos"

Tuleburg Press Facebook
Tuleburg Press is working to build literacy and writing confidence for all ages through book publishing, one-on-one mentoring, community outreach, and writing workshops.
Those activities occur at THE WRITE PLACE, a downtown Stockton creative writing and book arts center. Modeled after 826 Valencia in San Francisco, 916 Ink in Sacramento, and the San Francisco Center for the Book, THE WRITE PLACE teaches writing, bookbinding, and letterpress printing on vintage presses.
We see the center as a walking-distance friendly spot for students enrolled in the many downtown town schools, but it will offer creative writing and book arts workshops for writers of all ages.
Writing groups and book clubs will be able to use the space in the evenings. On weekends THE WRITE PLACE will host author readings and artists who teach paper making, book binding, and paper crafts of many kinds.
