In 2025, the Create Your Own virtual program continues to spotlight talented local artists from the DFW Metroplex and across Texas who have collaborated with the Mesquite Arts Center through educational programs, exhibitions, and vendor opportunities.
This free online series offers engaging craft tutorials that emphasize sustainability and creativity—featuring projects that cannot easily be hosted within the Mesquite Arts Center facility. Designed for children (ages 8+) through intermediate-level artists, each tutorial provides an opportunity to explore new skills from home. New sessions premiere every other month, from March through November.
This November, to align with our Tote-and-Go program and giveaways, we have created a corresponding video to help you make your very own felt Christmas tree using pipe cleaners. We will be highlighting local artist Christina Salazar, as she walks us through this instructional craft.
