Make a Mask

On September 8, 2007, Two Smart Dogs and Brentwood Art Center joined Whole Foods Market and SCORE! Education Center to welcome kids back to school with a Learn-by-Doing event.  Art instructors from the Brentwood Art Center’s kids’ program led a mask-making class.  Two Smart Dogs CEO & Founder, Rose Ors, along with marketing staff from Whole Foods, joined in the fun.

Kids were invited to make their own masks.
