The Project Tween Self-Portrait Party was fun for all!  Enjoy our gallery of photos from this January 2015 children’s program. Tweens brought a picture of themselves and their artistic abilities.  We provided the canvas and the paint.  They were asked to express themselves on canvas in a self-portrait, using acrylic paints.
