Pick and choose your projects that interest you. Or, pick a curated theme containing a group of projects by media type.

Supplies:

Most supplies are included in the Project Boxes with the exception of scissors, watercolor paints, glue, pencils (things you may have from the school year). However, we can offer some gently used items (crayons, markers, colored pencils, pastels, and some watercolor paint trays, etc..) for a small donation upon pick up.
