All Ages

Mini Painting: Painting 3D-Printed Miniatures

Where
Children's Room

Each month we will have different featured items to paint with acrylic paint. Models are available while supplies last on a first-come, first-served basis.

Kids 12 and younger may attend with a responsible adult.

This program is free and open to all ages! 

We also have washable markers and a paper and/or wooden option available at all of our Mini Paintings for those who do not want to paint. This option will most likely not follow the month's theme.

Board Games

Where
Children's Room

Each month we will feature different board games, as well as have other games for kids & families and teens & adults!

Feel free to bring a game to teach and play!

Games you bring to teach and play do not have to fit the theme of the month.

Some games we have at most game days include Astro Trash, Life, Connect Four, matching games, Chess, Uno, Dominos, Fluxx, Hi Ho! Cherry-O, and more!
