  • Banner reading 'Bad Art Afternoon'
    Saturday May 6, 2023 at 3:00pm

    Choose your art supplies and get to work creating the most hideous work of art you can. Once everyone has finished creating their amazingly abominable artworks, you'll be invited to show off your pieces in a short 'exhibition', where the Best Bad Art will be decided. The winner will leave with a trophy and the respect of the fine art community. 

    Join us in a fun, tacky, and no-pressure type atmosphere with good conversation and refreshments.

    Will you create the Best Bad Art?
