Seven Directions Institute of Art and Science Birthday ArtParty
Want to Try Something New This Year? Give Your Child an ArtParty!
Using the wide range of live animals and 3D models at the institute, each ArtParty attendant makes a small canvas painting to take home. The birthday child creates an acrylic on canvas painting made with the help of friends and family. Each child signs the back of the collaborative painting so the birthday child has a wonderful token to remember their special day. Families may also choose a thematic party. Animal, Dragon, Star Wars, Flower, Princess, myth and monster have all been popular parties in the past. Creativity Brought to Life! www.sevendirections.org
