Community Corner
Family Art Day featuring The Bears About Town
Kaleidoscope Center together with co-host The City of
Mission Viejo and The Friends of the Arts are pairing up once again to bring
the South Orange County Community Family Art Day on Saturday, April 26 from
Noon to 5 p.m., an afternoon of fun activities for all ages as well as an
opportunity to enjoy The Bears About Town art Collection.
Kaleidoscope Center has been home to The Bears About Town
Exhibit over the last year. But just
like in the popular children’s story book, the bears are looking for a new home
and they’ve found it at the Oso (Bear) Creek Trail. The community is invited to celebrate the
progress of these magnificent life size bears during the Family Art Day where
they are soon to begin their journey to their next home.
