LGBTQ+ Drawing & Painting Workshop |
Ages: 13-17 & 18-24 |
October 6 | 1:00-3:00pm
Create art in your image! Learn from Peter Thaddeus, a local professional artist who also runs programming with our friends at Youth Outlook. Under Peter's direction, you'll explore your strengths while designing a piece that's uniquely you. We had such a great time last year and we're thrilled to offer another afternoon of artistic expression! We'll provide the materials and snacks - you get to show up & make art with friends in the sunny Northside Room at the Wheaton Community Center. This event is FREE and open to LGBTQ+ people & allies aged 13-17 & 18-24. Sign up now to reserve your spot!
