Join us for a free art class inspired by the beauty of Shelby Park. Taught by our good friends Little Art House Foundation, each class explores a new medium and skill (take your art home with you every week).
Select Thursdays from 5:30-7:30pm. Art in the Park is for adults and youth ages 15+.
This program is a partnership between Friends of Shelby, the Shelby Park Community Center, and Little Art House Foundation.
