On Saturday, August 15, several Concord families gathered in shifts at The Umbrella Arts Center to paint scenes of “favorite Concord COVID-19 activities or destinations”. Maintaining social distancing, family groups worked with the guidance of local artists from Village Art Room and The Umbrella.
Since the Covid-19 shutdown, The Umbrella invited our community of youth and adult students, virtual campers, Summer Quest badge recipients, Ninjas in Nature, Artists-in-Your-Own-Residence, and other friends and neighbors to share what you've been working at – in any genre or medium -- to stay creative and hopeful this spring and summer! Poetry, visual art, digital creation, video, audio, poetry or prose, photography, music composition, choreography, cupcakes – the works.
