Meeting Room

Teens and Tweens are invited to join us for a drawing session—and get creative together.

For Tweens & Teens

Join us this October 5th for Drawtober, a spooky-inspired art session and creative meet-up just for tweens and teens!

We’ll be participating in the Drawtober challenge (also known as Inktober)—a month-long drawing activity featuring fun and eerie prompts. This year’s themes are inspired by magical and mysterious fandoms like Gravity Falls, Hilda, Wednesday Addams, and more!

Draw everything from pumpkins and cobwebs to cryptids and haunted libraries. Not into spooky stuff? That’s okay—you’re welcome to come up with your own creative prompts.

No drawing experience necessary—just bring your imagination!

Drawtober is a great opportunity to:

  • Practice and grow your art skills
  • Try out new drawing ideas
  • Share your artwork with others in a fun, welcoming space
  • Meet fellow artists and get inspired!

AGE GROUP: | Teens (12-18 years) |

EVENT TYPE: | Arts, Crafts, & DIY |
