FEB 13 | Project Create Family Art Day

Registration is now open for Project Create’s Family Art Day this Saturday, February 13th from 12 to 1:30PM!

Join us for this fun and engaging activity to create a dazzling gift-able creation for yourself or a loved one!

Teaching artist and author, Madiana Margao, will lead an activity that will prove to attendees that fashion and creativity comes in all forms! By combining art, individual style and pasta, participants will create beautiful pasta-based accessories including bowtie pins and a pasta necklace. Participants will also be given the option to add a Valentine’s Day-themed flair card, which boasts a decorative aesthetic and will provide a complimentary background to this fashionable activity.  

All ages are invited to attend this virtual session for our collaborative art project, and only basic supplies are needed.
