Your mission

What is it?

Follow along with an art master to create your very own galaxy that fits in a jar! You will need a clean glass jar with a lid, water-based paint, like tempera, acrylic, or washable in 2-3 colors like purple, pink, and/or blue, a bag of cotton balls, silver glitter, a cup with the amount of water that will fit into your jar and something to use as a “stirring stick” (could be a straw, the end of a fork or a paintbrush).
