Acrylic Painting Legacy Take & Create Art Kits

The Arrowhead Library System (ALS) will be providing Acrylic Painting Take & Create Art Kits to member public libraries to distribute March 1-31, 2022.  This art experience has been designed by 321 Art Studio in Chisholm and explores acrylic painting for beginners and more advanced participants.  Take & Create Art Kits will include supplies to create two unique pictures – one for beginners and one for advanced painters, one 11 x 14 stretched canvas, one 9 x 12 canvas board, one sheet of mixed media paper, and one paint kit that contains a drawing pencil, two brushes, and 12 tubes of acrylic paint.  Each kit will include enough supplies for three paintings, so participants have multiple options to practice and/or create something of their own.   Patrons can follow along with two separate videos to create a beginner painting and an advanced painting:
