Paint the Town Pink - Stories & Crafts with Lori Doody


Date: Feb 16
2:00 pm - 4:00 pm
Where: Level 3 Open Minds Classroom
Family Fun

Inspired by the story of two flamingos that were sighted in Newfoundland years ago, Lori Doody has crafted a charming and gentle tale, Paint the Town Pink, about being a stranger in a new place, needing to belong, and ultimately being welcomed in the warmest of ways. Young readers and listeners will have great fun looking for flamingos tucked into the illustrations, and watching as the town and the townsfolk gradually make their feathered friend one of the family. Lori Doody will read her delightful picture book Paint the Town Pink. Drop by to hear what happens when a flamingo lands in St. John's. There will be simple crafts for younger children including flamingo Valentine stencils, and colouring sheets, and the creation of flamingo cards.
