Paint

The Foundation uses only high quality artist's acrylic that is non-toxic and does not have an odor. Click here for detailed paint information.

Multiple-Canvas-Paintings

Dimensions
Vertically oriented designs measure 4' 1" high by 4' 8" wide.

Horizontally oriented designs measure 3' 1" high by 6' 2" wide.

All canvases measure 18" by 24", regardless of directional orientation.

Instructions for Setting Up an "Ideal Paint Station"
Place two 8' by 2 & 1/2' tables long sides together (this is a standard table size) to form an 8' by 5' table surface.

This is the best way to hold one multiple-canvas-painting (6 canvases, in either directional orientation) and the necessary art supplies. It enables painters to see how the canvases will hang together on the wall.

Ten to twelve painters can work comfortably around one Paint Station this size. Chairs are optional, but definitely preferred by painters.

Please confirm any table substitutions with the Foundation ahead of time. No round tables please.

 

"What a sensational event! The entire two-day happening occurred without a hitch. The organization and facilitation was flawless. Everyone at Hasbro Children's Hospital is delighted with the wonderful results."
