Do you love Virginia State Parks and drawing, painting, or creating art from materials found in nature? This month, around the world, many are celebrating a special day on the 14th of February that is marketed to recognize those whom are special in your life, gift give, send cards, and spread love.

You may notice, across the wonderful state of Virginia, that many establishments or communities display jumbo-sized LOVE signs because, "Virginia is For Lovers". This February we are excited to see what our visitors create through their artworks to show love or appreciation for our 41 Virginia State Parks.

Art supplies are provided. All ages are encouraged to participate and let their imagination run wild and free. Participants are encouraged to create to their hearts content during the length of this program. There's no better place to create art than at the Park. Let nature be your guide.

We welcome you to join us at the Farm & Forestry Museum where we will meet at the Quayle Classroom.

Painted Scenery with trees, Cliffside, a yellow-orange-pink sunset, and clouds.
