This year Hillsborough River State Park, a few miles south of Zephyrhills, Florida on US 301, will be offering art activities on the last Friday of the coming months from 7:00 PM to 8:00 PM. The cost of admission to the park covers these activities. So there are no extra fees to pay in order to participate. The whole family can enjoy these fun activities.
The programs will be held in the recreation building (Parking Lot #3) and different activities will take place on each of the evenings.
July 30th - Paint With All of the Colors of the Wind - You can create multi-media works of art that interpret the sights, sounds, and music of nature.
August 27th - Picnic Prints - Print-making using items from nature such as: leaves, twigs, rocks, bug skeletons, bark, etc.
September 24 - Edible Art - Learning how to make natural and health snacks to enjoy. Cucumber snakes, strawberry laybugs, and more! All of the materials will be provided. Nothing for you to bring. Just come and enjoy.
October 29th - Spooky Spray Art - Using toothbrushes, paint, and cardboard shapes to create Halloween themed works of art.
November 26th - Web Art - Learning how to identify web-footed animals that inhabit the park like alligators, frogs, ducks, etc. Also the webs that spiders make. Then create art using these types of "webs" to help you in the creative process.
Our state parks are great resources that we have close at hand. It is a shame not to enjoy them. So take advantage of these opportunities and take the whole family out for an evening of safe fun!
