My Project

This project is all about family and having a fun night with your family. Everyone always sees the fun nights of "painting with a twist" but rarely are their kid nights where students can paint with their family members. It would be so much fun for students to be able to create with family members!

It's always a blast to have a fun and safe place for students to have fun with families.

It's an even better night when the event is right next to your house! Students will be given the opportunity to create with our art teacher, Mrs. Hall. They will be able to showcase their talents with their family members and each person hang up a beautiful piece of artwork in their houses.

It's not every day that students get to paint with acrylics on a canvas. This project speaks to those students that want an opportunity to dive into the arts and spend time with their parents as they do so.
