Artist-In-Residence, Jenna Marie Kesgen invites visitors to celebrate fall colors by creating their own botanically-inspired Greeting Card!

Using vibrant watercolors, participants can paint an autumn leaf composition inspired by the colors and shapes of our changing forests. Jenna will provide paints, stencils and other creative-composition aids to help visitors of all ages and abilities create a unique gift-card that will be treasured for many years to come!
