Painting party at the Ethelbert B. Crawford Public Library

Pablo Picasso famously said, “It took me a lifetime to learn to paint like a child.” And he was right! Children are the world’s best artists. So FREE painting parties for young artists are being held all around Sullivan County

Kids up to 16 years of age are invited to a free paining party at the Ethelbert B. Crawford Public Library on June 21, 2025, from 1 – 3 PM. Their creations will be on display at an exhibit/reception at the Delaware Valley Arts Alliance Krause Recital Hall Gallery on September 20.

Then, on September 20, 2025, from 4 – 6 PM, the young Picassos will have the chance to experience an “opening night”, where their work is displayed at the Delaware Valley Art Associations Krause Recital Hall Gallery.

This project is sponsored by the Barryville Area Arts Association and made possible by a Community Development Grant from Sullivan 180.
