Click here for more information on the Magic Paintbrush Project at the Pieters Family Life Center. "Paint with the Players" will team up GOALS team members with players from the Rochester Rhinos for a game of "paintball" and a "Shoot Out" while having fun with other soccer themed activities using art materials.
Some things to consider for the Magic Paintbrush Project
This will be a messy, but fun and colorful, event. Please plan on getting paint on yourself and clothes. Bring your GOALS jersey for your portrait, but a t-shirt to wear during the "Paint with the Players". ALL PAINT IS WASHABLE AND NON-TOXIC. 
Although we say that "Life Is...Washable!", we always remind folks that clothes are not stain resistent. Even though we use washable paints and materials, it is suggested that everyone wear clothes that they aren't afraid to get dirty (you too parents!). It is also suggested that you come with a change of clothes to wear home if needed. Also a towel to put on the car seat is not a bad idea!If you have any questions about the GOALS "Paint with the Players" event, please contact us at info@pietersfamilylifecenter.org. We look forward to seeing you Wednesday! It'll be Magic!
