Many Visions promotes art and creativity through kids’ event
BISMARCK, N.D. (KFYR) – Local brand Many Visions focuses on encouraging creativity within the community.
Its event Mini Visions, focused on starting this process at a young age.
At the Capital Ice Complex in Bismarck, Many Visions set up a variety of family-friendly activities, all involving art and ways for kids to express themselves.
Live music echoed through the rink along with the voices of children joining in karaoke.
For event organizer Bobby Cochran, the event was a way to give children in the community an opportunity that was not available to him as a child.
“I was a troubled youth as a kid, so I never had these tools and had these lessons as a kid, so I’m trying to provide these for them and we do it absolutely free,” said Cochran.
Children were free to explore music and art activities, such as coloring and creating via virtual reality programming at different stations.
These exposed them to a variety of different interests and possible coping and therapeutic skills.
“I have two grown boys and just, you know, the more things you can subject them to, the healthier life they’re gonna live, I think,” said Nicole Morrison, an attendant of the event.
Cochran says the goal is to build a future for the youth filled with art and music, a sentiment supported by his slogan.
“Never doubt your visions, which means that you could do anything in your life that you want to do, you just have to believe in yourself and have to know that you can do anything you want, you just have to take those small steps to get those big steps,” said Cochran
Inflatables were also available for the kids to use.
