Creative Circles: A Community Collage Project


Visit the Fine Arts Center for the New River Valley at 21 West Main St., Pulaski, to see your contribution to the community collage on Saturday, November 30, 2024!

🔴 What is “Creative Circles?”

“Creative Circles” is a community art project that invites people of all ages and backgrounds to express their creativity and contribute to a collaborative artwork!

🟠 How Can I Participate?

Stop by the Fine Arts Center in Pulaski or Blacksburg during open hours to design a 6x6 cardstock square using markers or paint. Your design will be combined with others to form a cohesive community artwork!

🟡 When Can I See the Final Artwork?

The final collaborative work will be on display at the Fine Arts Center for the New River Valley, 21 West. Main Street in Pulaski on Saturday, November 30, 2024. Join us to see your contribution to the community collage!

🟢 Can My Group or Class Participate?

Yes! We can put together a “Creative Circles” kit for your group or class, including templates, instructions, and examples. Email savannah@facnrv.org to coordinate pick-up or drop-off of “Creative Circle” kits. Please let us know ahead of time if you need art supplies for your group.

🔵 Instructions

  1. Design Your Shape: Decorate the quarter circle and square any way you like. Feel free to use patterns, doodles, or abstract designs—let your creativity flow!

  2. Fill the Space: Use markers or paint to fully color in your shape. Try to cover the entire area so no blank spaces remain.

  3. Be Bold: Use bright colors, bold lines, or intricate details. There are no limits on your design choices!

  4.  Return Your Shape: Turn in your shape so we can add it to our community collage!
