Do you have unused art supplies lying around? Have some fun magazines to cut up? Come make multi-media Valentines with us at the WBNA!

Valentines don’t have to ONLY be about romantic love. We will start with some creative brainstorming about what we “love” and what kind of artwork you want to make. I’ll use games and chance to generate some ideas. Then we’ll get down to work.

Possible items to bring:

Watercolor paint

Watercolor paper

Magazines

Scissors

Glue sticks

Colored pencils

Pens of all types
