ERA Studio QC

This $15 class is a scary good way to spend a Saturday! 👻

🎃 Get ready for a ghoulishly good time! In this spirited two-hour Halloween workshop, young artists will create festive and not-too-spooky artwork inspired by the season. Younger artists will have the chance to paint pumpkin patch scenes or create various friendly ghosts and collaged creatures. Our older artists will have the chance to make their own personal, crystal ball!

I still have a lot of craft stuff to get rid of. I plan on having a yard "sale" this weekend. The quotations are because everything will be free, but I wouldn't say no to donations 🙂. If you are interested, pm me and I will give you my address. I have lots of canvases, easels, wood surfaces, and other art utensils.

Get ready to show off your art Tornadoes! 💙🤍🎨🌪
