Make a Creative Leap Day on February 29th!

Posted by Crystal Pepperdine, Founder and Executive Director of Flint Handmade

Flint Handmade is announcing a new tradition for Leap Day!

Every four years, an extra day (February 29) is added to the calendar to accomodate the fact that it takes the earth 365 1/4 days to revolve around the sun.

We want to encourage ALL arts, crafts and creativity organizations to promote and celebrate every February 29th as Make a Creative Leap Day!


Perhaps you have wanted to try a particular craft for a while?  Or, maybe you have been inspired by nature to incorporate certain color combinations into your art? 

What if you have been meaning to try out a new recipe?  Perhaps you have passed by a fabric, yarn or ceramics shop for years and never took the time to stop in? 

FEBRUARY 29th IS THE DAY TO MAKE A CREATIVE LEAP! 

We hope that making a creative leap on Leap Day will help motivate YOU to express your creativity all year long.  :)
