Join the Medford Arts Resource Vehicle (MARV) and Medford Recreation for some fun outdoor crafts and activities for children ages 2 to 6 at Wright’s Pond. Each class will include a treasure hike on the Wright’s Pond Trail. Upon returning from the hike, participants will receive a small snack, then MARV staff will lead a craft activity. All activities are designed to include participation from a parent/guardian along with assistance from the Medford Senior Center.

Today, the activity is Flower Pot Painting. Each child will have their own small pot to decorate with paint pens and stickers, and stencils. Children will go home with a decorated pot, plus a kit including soil, seeds and instructions to plaint the seeds.

Other fall MARV at Wright’s Pond classes will be Friday, October 12 (Stone Painting) and Monday, October 22 (Leaf Art). Each session is from 10 to 11:30 a.m. Cost is $8. Register on the Medford Recreation website.

MARV, operated by Medford Arts Center, Inc., is an art center on wheels, bringing supplies and inspiration to neighborhoods all over Medford and nearby communities.
