Storytime Studio: Mix it Up!
April 30, 2025 | 10:00 am–12:00 pm
Creativity is in full bloom every Wednesday at Storytime Studio. Celebrate spring with your littlest artist. Every week offers a new adventure.
This week: Let’s mix it up! We will explore primary colors and mix colors to make new colors. Young artists will choose a favorite color to mix and then use to create a painting.
