Everyone's favorite feline fable is here to charm and entertain your family! In Puss in Boots, The miller’s son is not finding life easy, with barely a penny to his name and no inheritance from his father, save for a useless cat and a pair of too-small boots. But this cat hides a secret: She can talk! And sing! And she has a plan to take them from the poor house to a princely castle.

Kids love Squishmallows! In this workshop, everyone gets to adopt a NEW Squishmallow and then paint its likeness on an 11x14 canvas with 3D glasses! Participants will learn how cool colors go back when wearing 3D glasses, and warm colors come forward, making the painting look like it's 3D. Kids get to take home the painting and Squishmallow.
