Watercolor Art Party
Tuesday, October 25
7:00 p.m., Assembly Room

The Arts Committee is sponsoring a two-hour watercolor art party for any level of painter. All of the drawings will be provided, and you don’t have to bring any supplies, just clothes you don’t mind getting paint on and an adventurous attitude! Invite your group or Sunday School class to join us for a night of fun, fellowship, and pie. This fun night is thanks to the family of Mary Ann Brandt, whose desire was for everyone to have an opportunity to experience the joy of art.

Youth are invited to participate, but must be in at least 6th grade and accompanied with a parent.
