Nature Drawings of Julie Child and Her Students will be Displayed

Julie Swope Child will be honored by the Woods Hole Woman’s Club on November 12. The reception will feature a display of drawings by her and her students and include comments by students who have studied drawing with her. After earning degrees in biology and medical illustration, Mrs. Child began teaching biological illustration at the Children’s School of Science more than 50 years ago. Upon retiring to Woods Hole in 1994 she responded to requests for adult classes and was soon teaching classes four mornings a week. The public is invited to join club members for this event at 7 pm on Tuesday, November 12th at The Church of the Messiah Parish and Community Center, 16 Church Street in Woods Hole. Coffee and light refreshments will be served.

Since its founding in 1914, The Woods Hole Woman’s Club has worked to enhance the lives of those in Woods Hole and surrounding communities. Members raise money for college scholarships and support community organizations through various club activities. Most meetings are held at 11:30 AM on the second Tuesday of each month from October through April with occasional events scheduled in the evening. New members are welcomed at any time during the year. Information about membership is available from Carol Casey at 508-299-8330.
