Father's Day is a wonderful opportunity to bond and create lasting memories with your Dad through creative activities. At Gwartzman’s, we believe that art can bring families closer together. Here are some fun and creative projects you can enjoy with dad and you.
1. Father-Child Portrait
Grab a canvas and some acrylic paints from Gwartzman’s and create portraits of each other. Whether you're a seasoned artist or a beginner, this activity is a great way to capture the love and connection between you and your Dad in a unique and personal way.
2. Collaborative Painting
Work together on a collaborative painting where each of you takes turns adding to the canvas. This can be a fun and spontaneous way to create a one-of-a-kind masterpiece while bonding over your shared love of art.
3. Memory Collage
Gather old photographs, tickets, and other mementos that hold special memories for you and your dad. Use collage materials like glue, scissors, and decorative paper to create a beautiful memory collage that tells the story of your relationship.
4. DIY Art Journal
Purchase a blank sketchbook from Gwartzman’s and turn it into a DIY art journal that you and your dad can fill with drawings, paintings, and written reflections. Use it as a creative outlet to express your thoughts, feelings, and memories together.
5. Handprint Keepsake
Create a lasting memento by making handprint art together. Use non-toxic paint to stamp your handprints onto paper or canvas, then decorate them with personal messages, drawings, or embellishments.
6. Outdoor Sketching Excursion
Take advantage of the beautiful outdoors and go on a sketching excursion with your dad. Pack your sketchbooks, pencils, and a portable easel from Gwartzman’s, and spend the day capturing the beauty of nature together.

7. DIY Art Supplies Holder
Get creative and make a personalized art supplies holder for your dad using recycled materials. Use old jars, cans, or boxes and decorate them with paint, markers, or collage materials to create a functional and stylish organizer for his art supplies.
