Creighton chosen bookmark judge Flowers to philosophy is the daily lexicon of Clare Creighton, Hermosa artist, who will serve as judge for the bookmark design contest which closed this week. "If thou of fortune be bereft And in thy store there be but left Two loaves, sell one and with the dole Buy hyacinths to feed thy soul." is a perspective to which she heartily subscribes. Mrs. Creighton whose work is well known locally, has been an artist and passionate admirer of flowers since early childhood. She grew up among the wildflowers of Manitoba and, encouraged by her parents, began to paint at an early age. It has proved a lifetime vocation and avocation. Her sketches have been published in this newspaper and other sketches and watercolors have been exhibited in local shows. She is an avid student of natural history and archeology and dedicated to fostering gardening and conservation (she is conservation chairman for the Hermosa Beach Garden Club). To this her garden and home clearly attest. Bookmark design winners will be announced at 1 p.m. Saturday, April 23, at the open house of the Hermosa Beach library, in celebration of National Book Week. Three top winners will be awarded a savings bond donated by the Hermosa Police Association, plus a book gift certificate from the Friends of the Library. Friends plan arts crafts day The Friends of the Arts will hold their 5th Annual Arts and Crafts Day on the lawn at Pier Ave. School from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday, April 23. This year's event will focus on a children's exhibit in all media, and a distinguished panel of judges will award prizes to winners in various categories. All students through the 12th grade are eligible to submit work, and entry forms are available at the local schools. As an added attraction, the Junior Collegiate Players from El Camino will present a 20th century update of Moliere's farcical drama, "A Doctor in Spite of Himself". Home Baked goods will be on sale, refreshments will be served, and the public is invited to attend.
