Mug-Up At Rio Claro Studio In March

Community-Building One Cup of Joe At A Time

Rio Claro Studio, a charter member of the new downtown gallery scene in San Marcos Texas, announces the next installment of their new monthly event called Mug-Up.

The event will be held in the foyer of Rio Claro Studio at 120 West Hopkins Street, San Marcos TX 78666 the last Saturday of March, March 26, 2016 between 10 am – 12 pm. Rio Claro Studio invites everyone to stop by and to bring your own mug! Mugs will be provided if you forget.

Mug-Up is an informal meet-up for the whole community and brings together designers, architects, costumers, educators, laymen and grandmothers; all are welcome – come as you are – rain or shine. Rio Claro Studio will provide the coffee and some baked goods; bring a sampling of your favorite goodies and treats if you can or are so inclined. Tradition holds that there are always deviled eggs to start things off.

The San Marcos Mug-Up was started by Gigi Mederos and Stevie Black of Rio Claro Studio in February of this year. Mug-Up as a community-building event was originally created by Ellen “Ejay” Lefavour on Madfish Wharf in the Rocky Neck Art Colony in Gloucester MA where Mederos & Black had their successful gallery, Aquatro Gallery.

Mug-Up was a way for anyone and everyone to enjoy networking on a grassroots level while enjoying a hearty cup of coffee and a tasty treat. It is because of Ejay’s love of deviled eggs that Stevie and Gigi have kept that tradition alive here in San Marcos.

Rio Claro Studio will hold the event monthly on the last Saturday of every month. Each month the studio/gallery will create an event page on Facebook with dates and times. The event will be held rain or shine, and the public is welcome and encouraged to attend this free event.
