Program Description: 
An art journal is a journal in which you combine art and words to express yourself. Artists such as Vincent van Gogh and Picasso used art journals as inspiration, and you can too!

Each week, we will explore a different medium to create beautiful, meaningful journals that you can add to and enjoy for a long time.
