Sunday, November 6, 2 – 5 p.m., High School Art Room
— from Geri Turnoy for A-OK —
On Sunday, November 6, 2016, A-OK (Art for Orcas Kids) will host another fun-filled afternoon at The Clay Café from 2-5pm at the High School Art Room. A-OK is a program of OIEF (Orcas Island Education Foundation), which brings local artists into Orcas Island Elementary School and Orcas Island Middle School to provide art instruction to K-8 students. A-OK art classes are totally funded by grants, private donations, and events like The Clay Café.
You can support art in your school and have fun creating something beautiful by coming to The Clay Cafe! Choose a mug, bowl, tile, plate, vase, spoon rest, travel beverage tumbler, and more, and paint it with the colorful glazes provided. Your designs can get as creative as you want. A-OK will fire the pieces and they will be ready for pick-up at the school in time for the Holidays.
People of any age can have fun at The Clay Café. Remember to bring your family and friends. Come and enjoy some yummy drinks and treats while you let your creative juices flow. All proceeds support A-OK’s K-8 art program in the public schools. (If you are interested in making a donation to help A-OK provide art in our public schools, you can always donate at www.oief.org.) Hope to see you at the Clay Café.
