 EVENT DESCRIPTION FOR PROMOTIONS

I’m excited to share that I'm participating in Forest to Frame this year! 🎨🌿

On May 16th, from 10am-4pm, I and over 50 other professional artists will set up our easels and draw inspiration from the nature around us. Attendees will be given a map and encouraged to wander through the arboretum, observe our creative processes, talk with us about our techniques, and discover how nature inspires each piece.

The free, family-friendly event will also feature:

· Live Music – Rosie CQ and Moss & Stone will serenade attendees all event long

· Kids Craft Area – The outdoor early childhood education center, Greenplay Northwest, will host a variety of crafts. Former projects have included painted rocks, floral bookmarks, flags, and more.

· Art Market – Visit our on-site art market to purchase a souvenir from your favorite artist.

· Nature-Inspired Art & Education – We, and nearly a dozen other local non-profits, will be on hand to host kid-friendly crafts and talk about our work.

· Food & Drinks – Grab lunch from Feast World Kitchen or a free coffee from Thomas Hammer

I hope you'll join us to get some fresh air, interact with the local art and environmental communities, and celebrate art's deep roots in nature!
