Sibshop Recap Klee Cats May 2022 The Arc Amplified 1

A “Klee Cats” Project for Arc Siblings

The Arc of Snohomish County was thrilled to welcome Ms. Lori from Imagine Children’s Museum in Everett to host a special Sibshop event on Thursday, May 12th.

Participants used an oil pastel medium to create a feline inspired masterpiece in the style of artist Paul Klee (b.1879 – d.1940).

Look at those works of art!

Aren’t they just PURRRRFECT?!
