Join the Nacogdoches Arts Collaborative this Friday for a creative evening at our Arts Cafe fundraiser, benefiting the Pineywood's Alternative Prom.

Open to ages 13 and up, the Arts Cafe is a relaxed, self-guided art experience where you can reserve a seat at one of four creative stations: watercolor, charcoal, collage, or acrylic on canvas. Whether you’re new to art or a seasoned creative, this event is designed to give you the freedom to explore and create at your own pace.

All materials are provided—just show up ready to make something. Our artists will be available to assist if needed, but this is not an instructional class. You create, we clean up.

Guests 21+ are welcome to bring their own beverages. Feel free to stop by Mad Hatter Distillery or Fredonia Brewery beforehand to grab a to-go drink to enjoy during the event.

An art book library will be available for inspiration, or you’re welcome to bring your own references. If you plan to participate in the collage station, we encourage bringing personal materials to incorporate into your piece.

All proceeds from this event directly support the Pineywoods Alternative Prom, helping them to create a safe, inclusive, and memorable experience for local teens.
