NWA Kids Guide

The First Saturday of each month is Family Day at YouthCAN!’s Community Imagination

Studio.February’s Family Day will be February 2nd from 10-4pm. All families in

Northwest Arkansas are invited to create family themed art projects together.  This

month, we invite families to come learn about contemporary artists who use the art form of quilts to create images, stories,

and experiences. Then, design a quilt collage out of cut paper and fabric  to tell a

story about your family.  In addition to the quilting project, families are invited to slip!  Experiment with

slip, a form of liquid clay, to create a family memento using small pieces of fabric.  Additionally, the painting

studio will be open for everyone to come create an original masterpiece.  Choose one

project, or participate in all three.  This event is FREE.

The Community Imagination Studio is located at 818 N. Sang Ave. in Fayetteville.

Have you heard about www.makinroom.com?

It’s an online furniture consignment store where you can buy and sell furniture, home decor, baby stuff and more…  I am really excited about this website because I have moved many times and every time I move I have more furniture than I have places to put it.  I just can’t give it away or sell it at a garage sale so it sits in a storage building not being used.  I wouldn’t say that my furniture is unwanted, I just have no place to put it, so I plan to sell it all on www.makinroom.com.

www.makinroom.com was started by 2 really nice local ladies Tina & Shelley.  Please click their link on the Home Page and sign up to sell your furniture too.

Also, tell everyone you know about www.makinroom.com.
