Central Library Community Room

Join Donna Merchant from Pencils and Paints for a family paint party! Create a beach-themed acrylic painting with your child on either one or two canvases. Registration opens July 25. Ages 5+

This will be a “pARTner” painting opportunity, so let us know if you’d like to share a canvas with your child or if they would like their own, so that they both can hang together as a “pair”. We can paint sandcastles, palm trees, shells, sailboats, and write our names in the sand! Please let us know when signing up if you would like one or two canvases. Aprons will be provided.
