What do you get when you combine watercolors, concentric circles, and your creativity? Art inspired by Alma Thomas!

Join us as we learn about African-American artist Alma Thomas. No experience is necessary as 4th-6th graders use watercolors to recreate their own versions of Thomas’s piece Splash Down Apollo 13. Come ready to use bright colors, fun patterns, and your own creativity!

Space is limited. Register to receive event reminders. Accessibility needs? Our Theater has hearing devices and wheelchair spots available. Please contact ask@acpl.info if you have additional needs - we’d love to help.
