The Alexander Black House & Cultural Center presents an Adult Art Kit Giveaway on Friday, May 8, 2020.
Adults deserve some fun too! Drop by the Alexander Black House & Cultural Center to safely pick up your free 'Art Kit' from 12:00-2:00 pm or while supplies last.
Those interested in receiving an Art Kit should drive to the front of the Alexander Black House & Cultural Center on Draper Road (across from the Kent Square Parking Garage). Please stay in your car and your kit will be given to you from the sidewalk. All personal safety precautions will be used. Masks worn during pick up are appreciated and encouraged.
The Blacksburg Museum and Cultural Foundation has partnered with several local artists to provide Art Kits to local adults. There are many adults in our community who are living alone, or juggling remote work, teaching children from home, taking care of the house and meals and dealing with their own thoughts about the uncertainties of Covid-19; or maybe just a little stir crazy! While there have been a number of wonderful programs for children, we want to make sure we are also attending to the well being of the adults!
Local artists have donated materials and instructions on making each of the projects…all you need is the willingness to ‘play’ and possibly some additional supplies most people have in their homes already. These kits are beginner friendly and all come with professional, easy to follow instructions or links for live instructions.
You can choose from sewing, clay sculpting, moss vase garden/dried flower note cards or pencil drawing & shading.
Note: Choice will be based on availability.
A big thank you to local artists: Larry Bechtel, Paula Golden and Diane Relf for their donations and putting together kits to share!
We encourage you to take a pic of your finished projects and tag us on Facebook or Instagram using @blacksburgmuseum.
