Tempe hosts Free Art Friday starting in October

Free Art Friday returns to Edna Vihel Arts Center beginning in October.

Free Art Friday is an event for children aged 6 months to 5 years and their grownups. It features new themese every month.

Each event's art activities, music, sensory play and decorations are based on a theme that changes each month. Free Art Friday allows caregivers and their little ones to explore and create together through art projects, imaginative play and music.

This program is partially funded by a grant from Tempe Diablos Charities.

All events take place from 9 a.m. to noon at the Edna Vihel Arts Center,
3340 S. Rural Road, Tempe.
