Activities

Part of being in community with others is sharing resources and expressing gratitude for those resources and one another. We are happy to announce that this month's free community event here at PAC is in partnership with Stillwater Mobile Meals, an organization that is committed to feeding the convalescing, elderly and homebound members of our community. Drop by with your friends and family on Saturday, November 13th from 10-12 to help us make beautiful, inspired postcards to include in Mobile Meals' Thanksgiving deliveries. We will provide all the materials and some art prompts to get you into a creative and grateful mood!

Costumed Figure Drawing
Join us on Saturday, September 18th for a free Figure Drawing opportunity at the Prairie Arts Center! We will provide a live model dressed in a fun theatrical costume, provided by Jason Estala from the OSU Theatre Department. Plenty of sketch paper, charcoal, and pencils will be on hand, or feel free to bring your own supplies. Standing and tabletop easels will also be provided. All you have to do is draw! We encourage participants young and old, experienced and novice, to join us for this inspired community event. April Dawes, who leads our weekly figure drawing class, will be available for questions and will be working with the model on poses.  

Join us on Saturday, July 24th from 10-noon for a fun, free, and family friendly art activity! This month we are offering the exciting visual experience of spin art. Come choose your colors and watch the magic happen. Leave with a set of artful postcards to send to friends or family! 

On June 26th, join us for our monthly FREE community arts activity! This month we will be decoupaging stoneware coasters with vintage images of fruits and veggies.
