AARP NH Paint Party

Enjoy a Creative Night In with Paint and Sip

Caring for a loved one? Do you need some time to recharge and use your creative side? Caregivers are an important community resource that help their older parents, spouses, and other loved ones age at home—where they want to be!

That’s why AARP New Hampshire is sponsoring a virtual Paint and Sip event, hosted by Paint and Sip VT on December 11, 6-8 pm. Caregivers need a break even if it’s just for a couple of hours. So, grab your favorite hot or cold beverage, get your creative juices flowing, and try your hand at painting the Holiday Birds. AARP will provide a brief presentation about available caregiving resources during the event along with live step-by-step instructor-led guidance to create your unique masterpiece.

Here is the list of supplies you will need:

· a canvas, canvas board, or acrylic paper. Any size works. Recommended 9" x 12" or 11" x 14".

· acrylic paints - colors: red, blue, yellow, white, and black. Green is optional; we will also blend it in class.

· a set of brushes - 3-5 brushes. Please have a range of sizes, from large to fine-detailed brushes.

· a cup of water to rinse your brushes
