Use CreativeBug to learn watercolor techniques.

Follow along with Yao Cheng as she teaches us the foundation skills to get you started in this beautiful art form.

We will learn about how to use CreativeBug, a free library resource, and get started with watercolor. All the supplies required by the class will be provided.

This program is designed for ages 11-18.

If you are neurodivergent and attending in-person programming is difficult or causes discomfort, please reach out to Josie at josieh@deschuteslibrary.org to request a take-home kit with instructions and materials. We will have a limited number of kits for neurodivergent youth as well as autistic or neurodivergent adults that are interested in this program; kits will be appropriate for ages 11-18.
