March Meetings

Bring out the Artist in You!

During the month of March our focus has been the Arts.

We had a meeting on March 4 where the kids used chalk to create their own paint. 

This Friday, March 18 from 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at the South Cobb Library (805 Clay Road, Mableton, GA) we will be studying great artists of the past. For our art project everyone will need to bring a printed picture of their child (preferably a picture that is of their head and torso). The picture will needs to be printed on regular paper and not picture paper. We are looking forward to seeing you all there!
