Terrace Art Cart

In addition to creating art at the Terrace Art Zone, you can purchase DIY kits and giftable, handmade works of art at the Terrace Art Cart, located at the Terrace Art Zone. We’re proud to feature items from ArtWorking, a Madison-based nonprofit that supports artists with disabilities. Browse and buy unique creations like stickers, pins, original watercolors, posters, and tote bags!
