ITS A Fun Raiser for Gamble Rogers State Park Turtle Patrol !!!!!
Your support for this event will be used to assist the Gamble Rogers State Park Turtle Patrol Team during the upcoming 2026 season. Our parks are designated state-index nesting beaches by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC). During this past season, from mid-April to October, our team patrolled the 4 miles of shoreline along Gamble Rogers and North Peninsula State Parks each day at dawn looking for signs of new nesting sites. They protected a total of 242 nests in 2025 by identifying turtle species and marking, monitoring, and inventorying each one. They also helped dozens of stranded hatchlings make it to the ocean. Sea turtle patrol members reduced disturbances to nesting areas and educated the public about the importance of sea turtle conservation. Data collected as part of the program is analyzed by the FWC to evaluate population trends and determine management strategies to help sea turtles now and in the future.
Join artist Sherry at her Palm Coast Art Studio for an enchanting creative workshop where you’ll bring "Snuggles" the Sea Turtle to life on a charming 28x28 inch cotton tea towel. This hands-on event uses multi-surface paint designed especially for fabric, ensuring vibrant and lasting color on 100 percent cotton. The tea towel features a pre-drawn design, making it accessible for all skill levels—whether you’re a seasoned painter or a first-time crafter.
This workshop is the perfect way to craft a unique holiday décor piece or create an unforgettable hostess gift that’s handmade with love. All the materials you need are provided, so simply bring your creativity and enthusiasm. Seating is limited to maintain an intimate and comfortable atmosphere, so be sure to reserve your spot early.
Don’t miss this opportunity to connect with fellow art lovers, learn new painting techniques, and create a beautiful, functional work of art inspired by the serene beauty of sea turtles. Whether you're looking for a creative escape or a special gift idea, this event at Sherry’s Art Studio offers a delightful blend of fun and artistry.
