Parent and Me: Elephant Pottery Painting In-Person
Join Mandy from the Art of Mandy for this fun family program! Children and their adults will each paint their own elephant pottery piece (elephant figure or elephant mug), then it’ll be brought back to Mandy’s studio to be fired in the kiln. Pieces will be returned to the Library for pickup at a later date. Please be sure to select the number of people that will be painting pottery so we can be sure to have enough for everyone! Ages 3-17, registration is required!
This program is made possible with funds from the Statewide Community Regrant Program, a regrant program of the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature and administered by GO ART!
