Join The Watering Hole, Inc. and b.cpaints for a collaborative gathering and prepare for the spring season by creating a Bloom Board!
Bring your journals, sketchbooks, tablets and whatever else you need to plan your projects and goals. In our first hour, kick back, relax and discuss your current and intended aspirations this spring in a relaxing and supportive environment. This will provide you with a roadmap for your Bloom Board.
In the second hour, Art Instructor Bryanna Catucci will guide you through the creation process of our board. Bring your creativity, thoughts, and feelings you intend to bring to life.
Supplies will be provided, but you are encouraged to bring magazines, art clippings and other materials that speak to you!
We hope you walk away from your event inspired and feeling confident for the season ahead!
