Early Childhood Family Art and Learn Night

On Tuesday, October 27, over 90 people traveled to Ken-O-Sha Preschool in Grand Rapids for an evening of art and fun hosted by VSA. At the event, these preschoolers and their families listened to stories, created pottery pieces, had their faces painted, played with parachutes, and made beautiful necklaces. It was a wonderful night for teachers, artists, students and volunteers alike!
See our facebook page for more pictures of this event.
