Color Me Coronado

A free coloring book give away event will take place at the Coronado Public Library and up to 100 free coloring book kits will be given away on Sunday, May 22, 1 pm to 2:30 pm at the front desk. First come, first served while supplies last.

Mainly for children ages 5 to 10 and their caregivers, a free “Color Me Coronado” Coloring Book and watercolor kit will be given out — sponsored by the Coronado Art Association, celebrating its 75th Anniversary, and the Coronado Library.

Island artist Connie Spitzer, the creator of the coloring book, donated the artwork for the limited edition of the free coloring book. The coloring book contains her paintings in full color of various public art installations around town, as well as a few whimsical neighborhood scenes with the scene reproduced in black and white for the children to create their own beautiful paintings on the adjacent page. A water color pencil and brush set is provided for the children to paint their own works of art inside the book.

The publication and materials costs of the coloring book is made possible in part by the generous support of the  Jim and Bette T. Sherman Fund, the City of Coronado Cultural Arts Commission and the Coronado Community Foundation.
