Teen Summer Reading: Paint Chip Poetry – June 25, 1 p.m. at Bluestem Nature Center
There are so many different names for colors, especially when it comes to paint colors. For example, there is “Atomic Vomit Green” or “Hamster Cuddles,” both legitimate names for colors! In this program, we will be taking these names and turning them into a work of art, and not one that you can paint. Instead, we will be using the titles of the paint colors and the paint chips in our own works of poetry!
