Lexington Park Library

Meeting Room B

Explore painting with vegetables - a different sensory experience than the average paint brush!

Vegetables make fun painting tools because of the variety of shapes and textures each brings to the canvas. With these tools, children can either try to duplicate the provided Van Gogh examples or they can make something of their own creation. Impressionism is all about capturing the moment of inspiration and is a way to let children's creativity shine as they experiment and have fun! No SMCPS on this day. a perfect opportunity to have fun at the Library! Recommended for ages 3-6.
