Calling all parents!

Are you looking for a unique and totally fun way to spend some time with your kids? How about a paint night!?

I'm always open to new activities that help get my daughter and me off our screens and make memories together. As someone who has always loved the arts (in any form), I also know there's something special about expressing yourself through creativity.

Seacoast ArtSpot is hosting a Bigs & Littles Paint Party where you & your kids can paint your own Teddy Bear at a picnic. You'll have help along the way as you paint your 11 x 14 canvas with "step-by-step instructions" by Jody Mueller.

So, no painting experience necessary!

Although my daughter is still a little too young for this, I could bring my nieces for a fun girls night out. This class is open to adults and kids (7+).

This summer's lineup is especially cute, featuring a Teddy Bear Picnic on July 19th, Sea Turtles on August 2nd, and Otters on August 23rd, with each class beginning at 4 p.m. All painting materials are included, making it an easy outing that requires little planning beyond showing up ready to have fun.

Seacoast ArtSpot (localled-owned and women owned) is all about making creativity accessible. And as a mom, I appreciate that! The Portsmouth studio says it's "a fun and innovative space for all ages and abilities to explore their personal creativity."

At the end of the day, it's not about creating perfect art, it's about creating moments they'll carry with them long after the paint has dried.
