Join us virtually on Wed, June 29, 2022 from 6:00 PM – 7:30 PM CDT.
FSR is thrilled to host our first ever Virtual Paint Night! We invite you to tap into your creative spirit, drag out your paints and join with others in the sarcoidosis community for an evening of laughs, stories, and of course, paint!
About the art:
Our artist will share her interpretation of a snowflake with a fun background. You can choose to paint the snowflake exactly as she does, or free-hand (or use a stencil) your own personal snowflake. We encourage participants to get creative, and use their snowflake to help interpret your sarcoidosis journey.
About the supplies:
Each participant is responsible for purchasing their own supplies, or having supplies they can use to paint and join in the creative process. Our artist recommends to following supplies, and you may use the Amazon link (don’t forget to use Amazon smile to support FSR!) to purchase them in advance, or find similar items at your local arts store.
- Pre-primed 16×20 canvas
- Acrylic paint
- (OPTIONAL) Extra white paint
- Paint palette (plastic plate or similar will also work)
- Cheap dish sponge (does not have to be new, if you have an old one it will work, but it may be cut up and no longer safe for cleaning)
- Foam brushes
- Paint brushes (this is flexible, you can get a whole set, but you’ll mainly need a fine tip, medium tip, and larger brush)
- Old or cheap toothbrush (you’ll never use for brushing your teeth again!)
