Whether you're a seasoned painter or a first-time artist, this event promises fun, creativity, and a chance to show off your favorite literary characters or themes. We'll provide you with a pumpkin canvas to transform into a literary masterpiece, a variety of paints, brushes, markers, and other creative materials to help bring your literary vision to life. All you need to bring is your imagination!
