June Creative Outlet: Delaplaine Arts Center
Kids and their adults are invited to drop in and get creative together at the Delaplaine Arts Center during a Family Open Studio experience. Participants can explore a hands-on, artist-inspired project featuring flower hammering (tataki zome)—a traditional Japanese natural dyeing technique that uses real flowers and leaves to imprint color and pattern onto fabric or paper. This relaxed, self-guided activity is designed for all ages, encouraging creativity, experimentation, and shared making between kids and caregivers. Admission is free, with donations encouraged to support future community art programming at the Delaplaine Arts Center.
