On Friday, Saturday and Sunday, February 12, 13 and 14, ArtsCetera’s Cobble Hill studio will be transformed into a giant art environment for the second CRAYON-A-THON.

De Cillis says, “Everyone loves to colors. Starting with 40 pounds of crayons generously donated to the event by Luann Foty, the guru of crayon recycling, it's B.Y.O.C. Bring Your Old Crayons!
The crayons we use will be melted and recycled into new, so children can love them down to nubs again. It’s a great, collective learning experience that is simple, fun and positive. It’s also a gesture towards developing more arts partnerships at a time when budget cuts are killing
early arts education for our most vulnerable families."
Crayon-A-Thon consists of 25 one-hour-long coloring time slots, including family-friendly hours, child-free coloring, late night I-Pod hours, and a Cocktail Coloring Party on Friday night for adults and parents w/o kids.
