Creating Love Letters

A family based art class with artist Maureen Claffy

January 8th and 15th, 4:30p.m.

Join us for two online art sessions where your family will create original art in a Love Letter format. Gather all of the art supplies in the house and your paper grocery bags in celebration of family and the new year. Art creation will focus around shared intentions, dreams and hopes for the year 2021, including appreciation and celebration for the relationships that make life beautiful. You will be guided in the art making by Chicago artist Maureen Claffy. No previous art making experience is necessary. All are welcomed and encouraged to create. Don't miss the special event where you will make memories and deepen the bonds of friendship and family.  Click below to learn more and to register.
