JANUARY AOM DISPLAY CASE ...

For a second month, the AOM case features works by Landings Art Association members of the Landings Woodworkers Guild. Be sure to take a good look at the magnificent case in which the pieces are displayed. The case itself was created by several members of the guild to be shared with our LAA artists who show their work in the Palmetto Club Gallery. It is truly a work of art in itself!

JANUARY AOM WALL ...

CONGRATULATIONS JIM GUERARD!

Gather your friends and be among the first to view the latest photography of January Artist of the Month, Jim Guerard.

If you frequent the Oakridge Wellness Center, you’ve likely admired the gorgeous nature photography hanging on the walls throughout the facility. What you may not know is that these photographs are the work of Jim. He has generously given his time and talents to create photography for the Landings Community and Club, including aerial photography of the golf courses, as well as the photography featured in the Wellness Center.
