A Creative Celebration for Week of the Young Child
Join us for a colorful, creative adventure at Books & Brushes, an oil pastels art class — made just for kids! This special event features guest artist Esther Kelly and celebrates Week of the Young Child with inspiration from Dolly Parton’s heartwarming story, Coat of Many Colors.
🎨 What to Expect:
Kids ages 2-7 with a valid ticket will create their own unique art piece inspired by a book from Imagination Library.
Enjoy a cozy storytime session with Coat of Many Colors.
Each completed masterpiece will be collected and transformed into a personalized sheet of stickers, mailed to kids after the event.
Artists can view their work on display at the Bleu Sage Noshery on Wednesday, April 9th from 4 to 5 PM.
Families will have the option to purchase keepsakes made from their child's art at a later date.
📅 Date: Sunday, April 6th
📍 Location: Play Palace in the Midtown Mall
🕙 Sessions: 10 AM, 12 PM, and 2 PM
