Holiday Fun in Norfolk

Christmas Creations
Karen's Norfolk studio is becoming quite the hot spot for exciting activities and whimsical art creations. Last month, she hosted an ornament-making event that benefited the Channel 3 Kids Camp. During this fun-filled workshop, she showed visitors how to paint on plastic Christmas tree ornaments and decorate them with all sorts of Rossi flair and pizzazz. If you missed the November event, fear not!

Karen will be holding another Open House and ornament-making workshop on Saturday, Dec. 9 from 1-4 PM. The workshop will offer visitors the opportunity to paint an ornament, which can either be donated to the Channel 3 Kids Camp Holiday Giving Tree or purchased with a minimum $5 donation to the camp for disadvantaged children. If purchasing one of Karen's ornaments from the tree, Karen will be available to hand-sign any of her pieces.

And There's More…
In addition to the ornament-making, Karen will have several of her Channel 3 Kids Camp items available. The "Summer of Hope" print, which was created exclusively for the Kids Camp, will be on display. Also, tiles, t-shirts, and tote bags will be for sale. For those looking for Karen's original metal sculptures, her new "Studio in the Woods" fine art gallery will be open. One-of-a-kind pieces, including original mobiles, wall sculptures, and "Short Stories" will all be on display.

Getting Crafty
For out-of-towners or anyone who can't make it to the event, we'd like to share with you how to create your own hand-painted ornaments. Check out our Crafts section for all the details on how to make your very own.
