Uncle Dave’s Reading of Cotton Candy, the Pink Alpaca & More!
Uncle Dave (Dave Howard) of Uncle Dave’s Art Studio will be joining us all weekend long at the Pennsylvania Sheep & Wool Festival!
Gather 'round for special readings of his beloved children's book, Cotton Candy, The Pink Alpaca — a heartwarming story the whole family will enjoy.
- He’ll also be doing live pottery wheel demonstrations, sharing his creative process in real time.
- And for the kiddos — get ready for some hands-on fun! Uncle Dave will have llamas, sheep, and more critters ready to paint and take home as a special festival keepsake.
It will be a wonderful mix of storytelling, art, and interactive fun you won’t want to miss!
