Agnes Crupi – Parrish, FL

I was always interested in art and dreamed of taking art classes. When I moved to Florida from New York in 2006, I was finally able to take classes. At the Art Center Manatee, I studied drawing, water color and acrylic painting classes. I find the classes to be very rewarding. You not only learn to paint but you meet many interesting and friendly people.

I was diagnosed with MS in 1990 and painting has proved to be very calming and relaxing. You get a feeling of accomplishment and a feeling that you are still a productive member of society.
