Get in the Halloween Spirit: Join Us for Paint Night!

Kids may not be trick-or-treating this Halloween but that doesn’t mean there won’t be plenty of opportunities to celebrate! Join us on Monday October 26th from 5-6:30pm PST for a very special Paint Night Halloween celebration.

Paint Night attendees will learn how to paint the picture featured here with help from our artist guide, Susan Nichols. Susan has been teaching fine art techniques to children since 1999. She teaches with a wide variety of media including acrylic, oil, pastel and watercolor. She loves sharing her knowledge of art, using simple tips and tricks to make art easy and fun for everyone. Susan is currently based in Southern California.

Below we’ve outlined some of the ways kids benefit from painting. The deadline to sign up is October 19th so please register today!

The many benefits of painting

Painting is a great way for kids to:

• Develop fine motor skills

• Learn self expression and build self-esteem

• Learn visual processing and memory-building skills

• Develop creativity and visual expression

• Practice words involving shapes and colors

• Find a voice without using words

• Practice innovating & creative problem solving

• Build community and meet other kids

We hope to see you there!
