Paint and canvases will be supplied by the Library but if you would like to add accent pieces you may bring your own supplies (we will be utilizing one size canvas for everyone though).
We will also be hosting an exhibit walk-though on Monday, November 18 at 6:00 P.M. We will provide light snacks and refreshments and the public is welcome to browse the art work and we hope many of the teen artists will be able to attend this event.
