Heads up for June Happenings!

 We are super excited to announce the upcoming events for June at the Art Dept: Every Tuesday morning from 10 to noon is Kid's Art. Sign up for five sessions between June 2nd and July 14th, and get ready for fairy garden building, magnet making, printmaking, painting, jewelry designing and more!   On Wednesdays we will be painting on canvas with acrylics. This will be taught by David Walker, and will be a great time for beginners or experienced painters.   Next up, we're bringing back some favorites- Pinot and Print, where we will do block printing on denim, and Java & Jewelry, where we make funky upcycled wearable art.  So much fun awaits you in the month of June.
