Summer on San Juan will get a little artsier with the return of Family Art Days for kids and adults to get creative outdoors.

Every Saturday – aside from County Fair weekend– from July to August will feature a different artistic pursuit from dream catchers to homemade flower seed bombs. The free four-hour drop-in sessions are led by a different local island artist each week, and use an array of materials and methods. No skill is required, and all ages are welcome.

All sessions are from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. except July 4 to accommodate the parade and is rescheduled for noon to 4 p.m. The new location for free Family Art Days is in the Art Orchard, adjacent to the new IMA building on 540 Spring Street.
