‘Kindling Creativity’ Adult Art Classes Giving Campaign at the County Fair
SJIMA raised money through the San Juan Island Community Foundation’s 2024 SJI Cares County Fair Giving Campaign for 'Kindling Creativity': a series of adult art classes once a month, 3 hours each session, beginning in October 2024-March 2025.
This series of adult art classes aims to kindle the creative spirit within. Each class will comfortably host 10 participants in the light-filled loft of the San Juan Islands Museum of Art. The classes are:
Colorful Mandalas

Creating a personalized deck of cards capturing one’s own wisdom and using watercolors and/or acrylic paints, permanent markers and paint pens on watercolor paper.
Chakras Mobile
Exploring the 7 Chakras and using the colors of the rainbow to create a mobile with watercolors, watercolor paper, driftwood, yarn/string.
