    Playfulness- Get in Touch With Your Creativity Pre: Co: Playfulness--the word alone may make you cringe. Adults tend to be too serious. We've forgotten the carefree play of childhood. We have performance expectations and are often self-critical if we don't measure up. Seldom do we allow ourselves to just do something for the sheer enjoyment of it without any end result. Come, explore, experiment, and delve into the mystery of art materials just for the sheer fun of it. Play with a variety of materials to create both 2-D and 3-D art. Wear old clothes so you can get messy. Bring a spirit of fun and adventure and be prepared to laugh. A $10 materials fee is payable to the instructor the first night of class to cover the cost of supplies.
