A Painting Party

Sadly, the signs of summer's end are here: shorter days, cooler nights and back to school supplies in every store. Before the kids head back to school, Spaces hosts a painting party with Northeast Ohio Rocks! If you've unexpectedly found a painted rock in Northeast Ohio, you're not alone. The group's Facebook page currently has more than 168,000 members. The project encourages artists of all ages and skill levels to paint rocks and "hide" them in unexpected places around town. Spaces' family-friendly rock painting party takes place from 2 to 4 p.m. today. Organizers will have rocks to paint, but guests are encouraged to bring their own. After the event, share a photo of your painted rock on the Northeast Ohio Rocks! Facebook page and hide it in your favorite spot for someone else to stumble upon. It's free. (Usmani)
