The City of Eagle Pass, Texas Art and Culture Center, located at 364 Main Street, hosted a patriotic Kids Art Course on Saturday, July 6, 2024 to celebrate the 248th Anniversary of Independence Day in the United States.
During the July 6th art course, Eagle Pass kids ages 6 through 12 years old participated in the special 4th of July theme art class by challenging them to paint a patriotic red, white and blue heart.
Being able to express one’s creativity through painting allows a child to develop their cognitive thinking processes as well as their creativity. The City Art and Culture Center’s children art courses also provides kids with a creative social activity that allows them to meet other new young friends who are fond of the creative arts and learn socialization skills as collaboration, teamwork, dedication, and cooperation.
The art of painting encourages young children cognitive development and how to use colors, shapes, brush strokes, and develop intellectual curiosity.
The Eagle Pass Art and Culture Center makes painting fun and inviting for young children by holding different themes each Saturday that are fun and creative for kids to participate in and enjoy. The art courses go above and beyond fostering the children’s love for art and challenging activities.
