We also have a display of art by adult art students who have taken our classes and award prizes to  them. We do kid’s face painting at the event and also have artists giving demos of their specialties.   Prizes and ribbons will be awarded. Katherine Turk has volunteered to coordinate the KAA tent . Thanks Katherine!  Volunteers are needed to help set up, to do art demos, booth sitting, and face painting. Any past KAA art class student may bring art work to display!
