Lemonade Day My Way is a new 2020 initiative which allows you to choose how to implement Lemonade Day in a way that is safe in your community. Communities all over the country will be celebrating Lemonade Day in a NEW way on AUGUST 20 - 23, 2020. How does it work? See our website for details.

Each month, we travel around the world to explore past and current artists, their works, and unique styles. Our special program this month is Joseph De Matteo of Ossining, NY. Joseph appreciates the therapeutic value of creating artwork and runs workshops for people who are in recovery, people who have mental illness, and for anyone who finds the creative process to be stimulating, fun, and calming. Joseph will be demonstrating his signature sponge painting technique and kids can follow along at home with their own materials.
