Madalyn Johnson celebrated her 11th birthday at the Art Garage on Walnut Street on Saturday, September 28, 2024. Karyn Walker, instructor/owner of the Art Garage and Katie Linder, assistant, were the perfect host for the party of “Squishmellows”. Madalyn chose the design, and her friends and family were able to paint their individual canvas in their own colors and style.

Those attending: (front row) Lettie Bond, Michael Bond, Emmett Johnson, (brother), Kaison George, Grant Johnson (brother). (Second row) Katie Londer, Allison Stafford, Birthday Girl Madalyn Johnson, Kristina Johnson (mother), London McNew and Karyn Walker, instructor.

Others attending: Lavonna Hamilton, grandmother, Lillian Tittsworth, great-grandmother, Vivian and Gary Johnson, grandparents, Trista Bond and Kaylee Whitefield.

They enjoyed cupcakes, ice cream, chips and drinks after their painting session. Madalyn received several nice gifts.

She truly enjoyed her special day with her friends and family. The Arts Garage is available for lessons, parties, and individual lessons, just call (615) 438-6062 for more information.
