Art Fun on Community Day 2025!
The MAC proudly participated in Manville Community Day again this year—marking our 10th year of sharing art projects and techniques with the community. Residents of all ages enjoyed learning a new fun, and creative activity: making Friendship Bracelets or Keychain/Backpack Fobs. The most popular color combination was Blue and Gold! See more photos on the Drawing Board News.
