🎨 Paint Your Own Paper Mâché Fish! Art Workshop for Kids & Families

Join us at Fortunato Art Studio for a one-of-a-kind creative experience led by artist Fortunato, who has designed a whimsical papier-mâché fish inspired by the vibrant beauty of Northern Minnesota’s lakes as a blank canvas. Each fish sculpture is unique—first come, first served—so arrive early to pick your favorite!
In this colorful, family-friendly workshop, kids—and adults too! will paint their own fish sculpture using bright, playful techniques inspired by Japanese contemporary artist Takashi Murakami, known for his bold colors and cartoon-like style.
