WHAT:
Boston-area families have supported KidzbKidz.org's work for more than a year. We are celebrating some of their beautiful work with an exhibit and a participatory "Art Party" at the Au Bon Pain at Children's Hospital Boston. Come experiment with an array of art supplies to create designs that may be transformed into Kidz b Kidz whimsical, colorful product lines to benefit pediatric cancer research and other childhood illnesses.
