The Alpena County Library is hosting Watercolor Connections: Live Portraiture on Feb.14 from 11 a.m. until noon.

The event offers a unique live portraiture experience where attendees can step up and have a watercolor portrait painted. Guests are immersed in the artistic journey as the process is projected on a TV for all to see. Those who get portraits leave with a 5×7 framed painting of themselves, kids, or their partner! Come to the library to make a memory and leave with a souvenir to remember this Valentine’s Day.

The event is open to all ages.

This event is free to attend, but goodwill donations to benefit the artists are appreciated. For more information on the artists, visit their website at www.watercolorconnections.com.
