SKOWHEGAN WesArts sent home free “Art Kits for Kids” April 27, due to inspiration from Waterville Creates and delivery through Kennebec Valley Community Action Program’s Family Enrichment Council.
Each kit featured educational materials about migrating birds, along with all art supplies needed to create a blue tree swallow and a yellow pine warbler craft.
WesArts Youth Coordinator Lyn Govoni spearheaded this project after fellow board members Peggy Hamilton and John Harlow shared their ideas, plans and community connections. Govoni reached out to Serena Sanborn from Waterville Creates, Angie Herrick from the Skowhegan Free Public Library, and Kristen Plummer, KVCAP’s community coordinator, who shared their experiences and information.
