Caladium Arts & Crafts Co-op

Judy began painting in 2004 and joined the Caladium Arts and Crafts Cooperative in 2008.

Judy is a member of The Society of Decorative Painters, and as a decorative artist, she paints in many mediums and on many surfaces for your home. 

She has been certified by Donna Dewberry, acclaimed 'one stroke' painter, and Priscilla Hauser, a member of The Craft and Hobby Association Hall of Fame.

Judy also began teaching in 2004 and will have several classes beginning in January at the Caladium Arts and Crafts Cooperative. 

  Erwin 'Ernie' Wagenknecht is the Caladium Arts and Crafts Cooperative artist of the month.

  Ernie's specialty is finely crafted wood turnings.  He started woodcrafting in high school, and later taught Industrial Arts, including woodworking and drafting, for fifteen years.  Ernie has been a member of the co-op since May 2014.  Prior to then, he never sold any of his work, so now is the time to purchase the creations of a veteran craftsman.    Ernie has lived in Sebring with his long time significant other since 1995.

Lake Placid is having "1st Friday and the Merchant's Street Fair" on Friday, Nov, 7, 2014.

The Lake Placid Art League has a photography exhibit, Toby's Clown School and Museum will be open for fun and clowning around, and the Caladium Arts and Crafts Cooperative will have Artist of the month reception and children's sidewalk art drawing. Light refreshments will be served and you may participate in the drawing for the gift basket... Fun begins at 4 PM and lasts through 8 PM

   Tish joined The Cooperative in July of 2010.  She has been a very active member, which includes holding the position of Vice President from May 2013 until April 2014.
