Art-making kit pickup: Thursday, Mar 18, 2021 | 2–5pm; ArtBash Live: Sunday, Mar 21, 2021 | 4–5pm
ADMISSION: This online event is free; limit one art-making kit per person.
Join the art-making festivities at The CJM's ArtBash Live inspired by Passover! Drop by one of several Bay Area locations to pick up a FREE art kit filled with all the supplies you’ll need. Then, gather with us on Zoom to celebrate bookmaking and intergenerational storytelling through hands-on art projects. Passover centers on the dramatic and symbolic retelling of an ancient story, and we can’t wait to create new stories with you through inventive projects filled with journeys, characters, and lots of surprises!
Tell a friend! People of all ages and backgrounds are invited to join in the fun and make art with us. Register today to reserve your free art-making kit, and choose your pickup location. Then, tune in live via Zoom on March 21 to create and celebrate with us.
Don't worry—you can still join in the fun by visiting our Explore page and watching the recorded session starting on March 26.
This online program is free, and advanced registration is required. Please register via the link below. During registration, you will also be asked how many art-making kits you would like to reserve, and which location you will pick up from.
The CJM strives to provide a welcoming and accessible environment to all who attend our digital programming and online content. Live ASL interpretation will be included for this program. If you will be utilizing the live interpretation, please contact access@thecjm.org to let us know, or for any other questions or requests.
Art-making kits containing project supplies can be picked up at your choice of several locations throughout the Bay Area (Berkeley, San Francisco, San Rafael, Lafayette, and Foster City). CJM staff will facilitate a safe and physically distanced pick up. Please reserve one kit per person; art-making kits are available while supplies last.
