The City of Benicia has been chosen to be a Be Kind Community for the month of October, and what better way to participate in the culture of kindness by sending a card to a special someone? New visitors get a stamp for their first letter, and there will also be a special give away! Writing supplies will be available, and feel free to explore the art galleries and outdoor lawn in the Historical Arsenal. Free parking and refreshments will be available.
What we recommend to bring: postage stamps (you can also buy from Oriana or others) and mailing address(es) for your letters.
Reservations recommended, not required. Register online by sending an email with your name and number of persons attending to Arts Benicia at mailto:peg@artsbenicia.org
