ARTerNoon

On Saturday, September 19, the NAGB will host its ARTerNoon. Kids ages seven to 12 are invited to make individual laminated collages. In the spirit of World Literacy Day and in recognition of the year-round need to conserve and protect marine life, the collages will be ocean-themed and constructed with imagery and vocabulary reflective of environment conservation and protection.

The ARTerNoon starts at noon and kids join the fun for $5.
