With guided instruction and plenty of room for creativity, kids will explore bold colors, speedy poses, and imaginative backdrops that make their artwork zoom off the page. Let's not forget Tails, Knuckles and Amy Rose, for where would Sonic be without his friends!

Then, they’ll dive into an exciting assortment of foam, felt, and textured papers to build colorful layered owls full of personality and charm.
To finish, artists will add fine details with Sharpies and paints, bringing their owls to life with expressive eyes, patterns, and feathers. The results will be truly one-of-a-kind works of art that are as bold and unique as the kids who make them!
