Art Love in Our Community: Sharing Creativity This Season
The holiday season is here, and with it comes the spirit of giving, creativity, and connection! At our children’s art school, we believe art has the power to inspire, bring joy, and build community. That’s why we’re thrilled to announce three exciting ways we’re spreading “art love” this season, all focused on cultivating creativity and community engagement.
Free Little Art Gallery: Pool
Next time you’re strolling past the Durant Trails pool, discover a charming little art gallery filled with delightful mini-masterpieces! Our Free Little Art Gallery offers everyone the chance to take a piece of art home or leave a creation for others to enjoy. Whether it’s a tiny painting, a handcrafted ornament, or a colorful doodle, these small works of art bring big smiles. It’s art-sharing made simple, and it’s open to all! Hint: This is also where you’ll find the scavenger art hunt guide.
Free Little Library: Playground
The Free Little Library nestled by the playground now features a festive twist! Peeking inside, you’ll find a little house completely decked out for the holidays. With tiny wreaths and creative holiday displays, it’s a magical experience for kids and adults alike. Be sure to stop by and soak up the holiday spirit while admiring the creativity of our community.
Art Scavenger Hunt Along the Greenway Trail
Get ready for an art-filled adventure with our Art Scavenger Hunt! We’ve hidden NINE artistic treasures along the greenway trail for families to find. From painted rocks and whimsical sculptures to nature-inspired art pieces, each discovery is a reminder that creativity surrounds us. Pick up a map at the art school or download it online, and let the hunt begin!
