Drawing and Paint Week at CF library

CRYSTAL FALLS — The Crystal Falls Community District Library will host Drawing and Painting Week starting Monday as part of the six-week Summer Reading Program, “Color Our World.”

Along with reading books about drawing and painting, this week the babies will be making sandpaper art, toddlers will be painting with toy cars, pre-schoolers will make some dot art. Children ages 5 to 8 will learn all about painter Alma Woodsey Thomas and paint emulating her style. Ages 9 to 12 will learn some art history and then try painting in the style of Claude Monet and Salvadore Dali.

Teens/adults night is at 6 p.m. Tuesday. No registration is required. They will expand art and reading horizons through a color-mixing activity. Those who attend are invited to bring their favorite book from home or choose one from the library shelves.

Then, using colors from that cover, they will complete a painting activity that will lead to a new book to enjoy by its cover colors.

Family night will be at 6 p.m. Friday, June 20. They will have an art and artists trivia night. All are welcome, and there is no registration required for the event. Categories include local artists, name that media, name that artist, film classics, television’s greatest hits and more. The Friends of the Library will provide refreshments.
