Join us for a unique art event with several stations for getting creative. Then get lots of snuggles from our friendly goats and sheep!
About this Event

Come join us for a relaxing, fun art event. We will have several art stations set up and you can take your pick, or even flutter like a butterfly to more than one :)

There will be nature and animal themed ceramic painting, a watercolor painting area, some cute and easy cross-stitch keychains, and paintable/colorable wooden ornaments.

Amanda will lead an optional watercolor workshop during the art time.

Use this as your excuse to take some me time and get creative or bring a friend or family member and have a fun unique experience!

We will take a break in the middle so that our goats and sheep will help you further relax and smile with snuggles and cuddles. They may even lay in your lap!

Ages: Recommended 5+
