    Description

    Volunteer Painting in Riverside Park

    Join us for a fun day of volunteer acrylic painting at Riverside Park. It's a great chance to meet awesome people, beautify the park, and enjoy some fresh air. We will provide all art materials, snacks, and refreshments—just bring your creativity, good vibes, and artistic talent. At the end of our event, all art is donated to be sold on our website to fund supplies for a local special education school. Let's make Riverside Park shine together!

    Teenagers (13-18) and adults may come, as long as you are ready to make a great art piece! Paint next to the scenic river view while enjoying snacks and refreshments. We will be set up at the Red Shade Plaza in Riverside Park South.
