Settle in for a story, then move into a creative session painting a ceramic bear magnet. Every child receives their own piece to decorate and may work independently or with help from a guardian or a staff member. Participants can take as much time as they need to paint. When finished, the piece stays at the studio for firing and will be available for pickup one week later.

Free to attend, this family-operated, all-ages festival centers on peace and community spirit.
