Art Start Family Workshop

October 9, 2015 by Deirdre McAndrew

Art Start Family Workshop. Make your way to the Seaport this Saturday for a morning of making a homemade checkerboard! Add to your family game nights with your very own masterpiece, this may even spark an interest and motivate your children to learn the game or for you to refresh your memory.

You’ll be able to choose your own colors as you design your custom made checkerboard. Your children will be happy adding to their collection of games and toys, and being able to say they made it all by themselves or with the help of their family.

Art Start focuses on the youth of NYC through free creative workshops open to the public in different venues, inside homeless shelters, programs, and other youth agencies. Art Start is a member of the Seaport Culture District. An outdoor light-and-sound installation in Cannon’s Walk is currently featured at the South Street Seaport.
