We welcome back Tammy Barnes for winter wonderland painting. Our little artists will create their own works of art!
Dive into a world of creativity and journey to where imagination knows no bounds! In this class, each artist becomes an architect of their own fantasy world, weaving tales of magic and wonder. ️ Using recycled materials, craft moss, vibrant paints, and other items, our young artists will craft their own fantasy landscapes in 3D! Through this hands-on arts building experience, youth can bring to life anything from majestic mountains, enchanted forests, underwater seascapes, larger-than-life insects, mystical creatures, the possibilities are endless! Not only will our artists have a blast creating, but they’ll also learn the importance sustainability in visual arts!
