Children painting Seuss-inspired art
The renowned Museum of the Albemarle invites children and families to kick-start a colorful celebration, paying tribute to the great Dr. Seuss. The museum announced its event – a Paint ‘n Party slated for Saturday, February 24, 2024, from 10 a.m. until noon.
The day’s program pledges to harmoniously blend fun, education, and creativity. Participants can celebrate Dr. Seuss’s birthday with an engaging reading of ‘One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish‘. Adding to the vibrancy of the day, children of all age groups will be coached in the art of canvas painting under the expert guidance of Mara Swindell from Create and Celebrate.
Following the festivity and hard work, an exuberant after-party is planned, complete with snacks and refreshing drinks. The Museum encourages wholesome family involvement by asking parents to assist their young ones in the painting session.
Given the enormous popularity of Dr. Seuss and the unique nature of this event, seating is limited. Prospective participants are asked to preregister and pay a small supply fee to secure their seats. Unfortunately, there will be no refunds once the fee is paid.
With the excitement brewing, tickets are predicted to disappear rapidly. Tickets can be availed either by phone at (252) 331-4054 or online.
This unique birthday bash celebrates the quirky, thought-provoking, and enduring art of Dr. Seuss. Dr. Seuss, born Theodor Seuss Geisel, has been an inextricable part of children’s literature for decades. The author, cartoonist, animator, and artist’s quirky rhymes and unique illustrations have been entertaining children and adults alike since his first book ‘And to Think That I Saw It on Mulberry Street‘ was published in 1937.
Dr. Seuss’ books have sold millions of copies and have been translated into countless languages globally. His playful characters, whimsical languages, and valuable morals have made his books beloved teaching tools for parents and educators alike.
This event is a perfect opportunity for children to engage with literature and art, both inspired by Dr. Seuss’ creativity and unique perspective on the world. In the spirit of Dr. Seuss, the Museum of the Albemarle promises a celebration filled with color, creativity, laughter and learning.
As we await the fun-filled, unique celebration of Dr. Seuss’s birthday at the Museum of the Albemarle, remember to mark your calendars. February 24, 2024, promises to be a memorable day full of art and merriment in honor of one of the most inspirational figures in children’s literature.
