Parents are invited to join their child for an evening of painting from 6-8 p.m., Thursday, Feb. 28. The class will cover various acrylic painting techniques and how to apply them on canvas.

Parent and child will paint a “Twilight in the Forest” masterpiece together on one canvas.

Children ages six and up are welcome to join a parent, aunt/uncle, grandparent or family friend.

“You can enjoy your work of art for years to come,” said Community Education Coordinator Heather Matthews. “Stroke by stroke, you will learn various art techniques such as shading, highlighting, toning and more.”
