Media Tables

Create abstract, organic art by (carefully) spilling paint. It might get messy.

Acrylic pour painting uses natural forces like gravity and viscosity to create one-of-a-kind works of art. Stripes, cells, tree rings, bubbles, and more appear as you drench your canvas with pre-mixed paint. Wear clothes that can get messy.

This is the tween program for grades 7+. For older younger artists, please check out our program for tweens. For more information, contact jsmiley@minlib.net
