Paragon of Play

Exciting events at Paragon in September!

🍎Adult Paint Night
We will be painting "Farm Fresh Apples" a perfect art piece to hang in your home as we move towards autumn! As always, your painting is full customizable so you can add or remove details, such as the text in the example.

🎨Family Paint Workshop
Grab your favourite people and head on over to make some art! We will be painting "Pumpkin Patch Keeper" which features a fully customizable (and very cute) scarecrow sitting atop a big pumpkin. The image will be fully pre-traced.

🍫Chocolate Bar Bingo
Tweens and teens get to enjoy a night out at bingo! Bingo was such a huge hit with our summer campers, we knew we had to bring back this fun event! Play bingo, win chocolate bars... sounds delicious!

🫧Slime Club
The favourite! Come make slime and have a great time!

As always, all details are outlined on the registration page. Go to www.paragonofplay.com to sign up for your September events before Friday, September 4th.
