Join us for a day of hiking and painting at the Maritime Center! The day will begin with a Naturalist led hike to our salt marsh to gain inspiration for your canvas. Once back at the Maritime Center we will begin our painting project lead by artist, Debby Bloom. At any level of experience, a painting class with Debby Bloom is an adventure in both creativity—and fun! With some guidance on where to start and what a variety of brushes can do, each painter gets to choose a favorite view and explore what that might look like on canvas. When we paint together, it is fun to relax, try different techniques, and see all our projects evolve from a blank canvas to a finished painting—all in a just a couple of hours

What to Bring: shoes & clothes that can get muddy, a change of shoes & pants, camera or phone to take pictures, lunch or snack, water bottle, sunscreen & sunglasses

All painting materials and light refreshments will be provided.
Cost: $30 per participant

The Future Economy and Construction Industry in S.C. Depends on a Skilled Workforce.

The current crisis has made it abundantly clear that the residential construction industry is not only needed, but an essential tool in the future economy in S.C. It is also very apparent of the growing need of a skilled workforce.

The HBASC and associated trade associations have formed a powerful collaborative to promote skilled trades in South Carolina:
It’s called Be Pro Be Proud SC, and the ultimate goal is to transform our future workforce by increasing the pool of qualified workers and re-instilling pride in the skilled trades.

This career-awareness campaign has already been successful in Arkansas since 2016, and we are working closely with the original team to become only the SECOND state in the nation to launch our own mobile workshop. Our website BeProBeProudSC.org is under construction. Meanwhile, check out http://hbaofsc.com/be-proud-be-pro-s-c/ to see what we are going to do.

A custom-designed, military-grade, double-expandable semi trailer will be loaded with hands-on simulators of a variety of skilled trades including welding, truck driving, heavy equipment operation, diesel technician, lineman, and more. It will travel throughout the state to schools, fairs, career centers, conventions, government events, military re-entry programs, and more.
