WOW! WOW! WOW! What an extraordinary event we had this year at Art Day Celebration’s 3rd Annual Art On Canvas Workshop event. Due to the collaboration of the following people, our workshop turned into a real special event full of music and art. Thanks to our Art Instructors: Lead Artist Instructor, Hugo Rodriguez, Kaylin Silva, Alex Louis, and our newest art instructor, Tamika Albertini who introduced Organic Art to our 4-8 years old ADC participants, the children walked away inspired, empowered because of the things that they’ve learned during this year’s workshop.
