To make this day extra special, the Farm has commissioned five teaching artists from across the U.S. to guide the sessions. No prior experience with the arts is necessary; all that is needed is the desire to try something new and the inner ok to let yourself play. This program is geared towards adults; kids aged 14 and up are also welcome. Two of the tracks will be particularly family friendly.
