For Black History Month, we'll celebrate curls and coils by creating 3D paintings.

Learn about the CROWN ACT and the importance of celebrating the differences of all people. Then, create 3D piece of art using several options of bald beauties on pre-stenciled canvases to customize and style. Ribbons, bows, yarn, paint, synthetic hair, and more will be provided to make the canvases *POP*. 

Space is limited; register in advance to reserve your spot and receive reminders. Registration will guarantee your seat until the event begins. Accessibility needs? Please contact ask@acpl.info as soon as possible - we’d love to help.
