NAMI to Host Another Paint in the Park Event

Members News

We all deserve to have shelter–a space where we feel safe and secure. It is important to our mental health. What does that space look like to you?

Take the opportunity to show us on Friday, August 29 from 4-6PM at Covington Township Park as you craft home with us. 

Bring some friends and family to paint and/or decorate wooden birdhouses supplied by Lackawanna County as part of its “Shelter for All” communitywide project focusing on learning and celebrating local bird populations and exploring what “home” means to you. 

We had a great time in June at Nay Aug Park and in July 25 at Aylesworth Park in Jermyn. 

Bird houses, acrylic paint & brushes, craft gems, and dried flowers will be provided at no charge. Feel free to bring newspapers, magazines, or your favorite craft supplies to add to the mix!

Join us for a combination of therapeutic activities: creating art, connecting with others and spending time outdoors. And it’s FREE!
