First Coast Cultural Center plans painting party

The First Coast Cultural Center is planning a Splash of White Painting Party from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Friday through Sunday, Aug. 14-16. The goal is to refresh FCCC’s exhibition spaces with a fresh coat of white paint.

Claim a shift between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. on:

• Friday, Aug. 14 — Taping Day

• Saturday, Aug. 15 — Primer Day

• Sunday, Aug. 16 — Painting Day

No experience is needed, just a willingness to pitch in and help a space that brings art and culture to the community. Volunteers and donations are both welcome and appreciated.

• Painter’s tape

The First Coast Cultural Center is looking for 10 to 20 volunteers each day to help transform the space. Please wear painting appropriate clothing and shoes.

Volunteers should bring any personal protective items they prefer, such as gloves, masks, aprons or other paint protection.

FCCC provide pizza, water and snacks.
