On Friday, September 2nd, San Mateo County Libraries invites you to join us for Art Break Day, opens a new window. Come to our libraries to “take an art break” and create art for free.
Art Break Day, created by the nonprofit Art is Moving, opens a new window, is an annual worldwide event where people of all ages are given the supplies and space to create art for free.
