Grownups invited
to color
“Stress-Less Coloring for Adults” will be held at 9:30 a.m. Saturday on the Kailua-Kona Public Library lanai.
Coloring isn’t just for children, it is proven to be beneficial to adults too. Generating wellness and quietness, as well as stimulating the brain areas related to the senses and creativity, adults are again enjoying this simple form of art and evoking happy memories of childhood.
Attendees don’t have to color inside the lines or finish their picture. Patterns will be provided as well as colored pencils. Attendees may bring their own pencils, markers, or craypas.
