The states were pre sketched so it made it pretty easy. I certainly can't comment how it would be following along. However, there were a ton of paint color options and the instructor was super happy to give guidance or lay low and followed our lead which I appreciated. BYOB but bring your own cup!

This was so much fun! I had always wanted to paint and this is exactly what I was looking for! I…read morewent by myself and there were only 3 of us that night so it was fabulous! We painted a "little blue bird" which was so cute and modern. I was nervous because I didn't want it to turn out awful since I really had no previous experience. She was so encouraging and did a great job explaining what to do! I am so proud of the final product and it will be hanging in my daughters room! Everyone was so impressed that I did it. It was amazing that we started with a blank canvas and 3 hours later we had a work of art! I will defiantly go do this again! Next time I will take a friend or my daughter, but I wouldn't be afraid to go solo either! Fun! You can go on the website and see what they will be painting that night. FYI - their studio is located across the street from the old Carmel Laundry Mat on Rangeline, just southwest of the big Carmel Arts District Arch.

Last week, ARC of Greater Boone County celebrated the dedication of the Cross Haven Sensory Arts…read moreGarden at the intersection of Drake and Main Streets in Lebanon. This unique garden offers a blend of local art, sensory plants in neatly raised beds and a few musical interactive activities in a colorful space. A former piano, now painted purple, serves as a large fun planter. A crushed gravel walkway meanders through the little park. Several benches and a picnic table are available for visitors. I found the space peaceful and lovely. The garden is dedicated to the late Ken Cross, former President, Treasurer and board member of ARC. ARC is dedicated to assisting members of the community with disabilities obtain training and find jobs. There is parking in the adjacent ARC parking lot. There is no charge to enter the space. Bravo to ARC for sponsoring, building and maintaining this important space.

Be sure to check out the art in front of the building and in the lobby. Maybe it was just the time that my husband and I visited but a lot of the art was made by high school students. And wow, are those students talented. There are rotating galleries. The best part is that this museum is free. For a fun afternoon, I highly recommend the Art Gallery of Greater Lafayette!

Here's what we loved: + Free entry (and $5 parking to park close but totally worth it) + Food area = they allow you to pick up all the food you want and then pay for it all together as you exit. Same with the dessert room. Super efficient! + Huge Greek salads and Greek fries = favorite savory foods + Dessert room in the church = favorite thrill of the event (yummmm) + Baklava cheesecake = favorite dessert we tried + Fun dancing = performances and they involve everyone later in the night + Seating = many shaded tents with chairs and tables + Kids area = puppet shows, coloring, and beading crafts + Church = beautiful building and they let you peek in too + Photo opps = fun and creative + Marketing = Lenie does the best job and is so on top of things! + Social media = so much great info posted clearly on their IG Things to note: + Dessert line = it's long but it moves quicker than you'd expect. I saw that they have a dessert pre-order option and a pick-up area that makes it much quicker but it was fun to see everything in person to choose! No regrets. + Dessert menus in line = there was a dessert menu listed outside of the church but as we were waiting in the line, it would've been helpful to have some menus posted along the line so people could think up their order while waiting. (Or we should've taken a photo of the outdoor sign!) + Entrance from parking lot = mostly everyone parks in the big field next to the church but then you walk up a little hill, between trees, through the parking lot, and past the emergency vehicles. It felt like maybe that wasn't the right entrance, so some signage or some type of entrance would be fun there. It's such a wonderful event and we'll definitely be back! Great work!

They sell fresh dairy, eggs, meat, sourdough, lotions, and other home goods--but the real magic is the experience.

There are baby chicks in the barns that she can see up close. Outside, she can feed the ponies and goats and see an antique tractor. This is a great place for the kids to learn about farming. The farm is a regenerative farm which promotes sustainable farming. There is a large tree in the back for which the farm was named after. I come for the fresh eggs at $6.50 a dozen. The fresh meats are expensive, but look tempting. The staff is welcoming and friendly.
