Confetti Canvas Creations
Program Description

Get ready for a burst of color and creativity with Confetti Canvas Creations! Young artists will design and paint their very own canvas masterpiece, then craft and decorate a confetti popper to celebrate their creativity. Once the artwork is complete, the real fun begins—pop, toss, and cheer as confetti fills the air in a dazzling display! This hands-on activity can get a little messy and is best suited for children ages 8-12, as it involves multiple steps. Let’s create, celebrate, and make a masterpiece of memories!
