Everyone is an artist in their heart, yet many people don’t know this about themselves.

Wanna feel that good again?
What if you got to play around with paints, picking out your very own colors, making YOUR unique shapes, patterns, designs and you had a ton of fun doing it with people just like you, who are showing up to do the very same thing? Come join us for a day of pure play! Come find the freedom to be the artist that you are…even if you don’t know it yet!
