Hooray for May: A Family Art Day!

Hooray for May!” will bring together families from the local
community for a fun and interactive day of making art. A variety of
hands-on art activities for kids of all ages and parents alike will take
place in The Center’s three art studios and in the outdoor pavilion,
and include a variety of creative projects to keep or give on Mother’s
Day.

A highlight of “Hooray for May!” will be a unique art experience led
by renowned New Jersey artist and muralist Dan Fenelon, who will work
directly with families to help them create large, vibrantly-colored
banners that will be prominently displayed in local business locations
throughout the Bedminster area. Fenelon has created murals across the
United States including the Peace Mural that welcomed the Dalai Lama to
the 2011 Newark Peace Summit.

Rounding out the afternoon will be family-friendly guided gallery
tours of The Center’s current exhibitions, an art story time, a
community hula hoop weaving project, and a creative do-it-yourself photo
booth. Light refreshments including Friendly’s ice cream, cupcakes from
Pirate Cupcake Baking Company, and Herr’s potato chips in a variety of
flavors will be available. All children
attending “Hooray for May!” will receive a “swag bag”, and student
members of The Center will receive a special gift. Free t-shirts will be
given out to the first fifty children.

Participation in “Hooray for May!” is free thanks to the generous support of Lead Sponsor Investors Bank.
