CAA and California Watercolor Association (CWA) participated in a kid’s camp event at the Monument Crisis Center in Concord, organized by CAA/CWA member, Sandi Sherwood.
Our artists were warmly welcomed by staff at the center - kudos to the entire group of folks who made this happen!
Members of both associations taught drawing, mixed media, watercolor and encouraged creativity to 54 children, ages 5 to 14. What a day…in a good way!
The instructors threw everything they had at the excited participants and although everyone was exhausted at the end of the day, everyone left with smiles and…art.
Blick Art Materials donated brushes to CWA for the event and there was not a dry brush in the bunch by the time we closed the event. A big shout-out to Blick for their generosity and support of our community outreach.
We had a wonderful day. Art instructors/encouragers were:
Mary Frances Crabtree
Janice Davis
Michael Friedland
Carol Husslein
Cathy McNutt
Arlene Molina
Deena Sheranko
Sandi Sherwood
