Fall Quarter First Saturday Activities Schedule
October 5: Salt Painting
Create a vibrant and textured work of art using glue, salt, and watercolors. Starting with a black piece of paper, you will be able to draw a design with a glue bottle – think swirls, zig-zags, and squiggles – then add salt and watercolors to see your lines vibrantly come to life!
November 2: Day of the Dead
Come create art inspired by the Mexican celebration Day of the Dead! Design your own sugar skull or make a beautiful paper bouquet of marigolds. Don’t forget to stop on the stairs and admire Billy Hassel’s painting, Game of Chance, inspired by the holiday!
December 7: Winter Landscape
Join us in the studio and create your own unique winter landscape. Explore art and nature through pastels and watercolors. Design your winter wonderland then add some animal friends playing in the snow!
