Here’s a little more info to decide what class may be best for your child.
Mini Makers
1-3 Years Old
This first time art experience for our tiniest artist and their parent/caregiver is all about a PROCESS- based, colorful Fun! Each week we will present a simple theme and dive into mixing, pouring, touching, scribbling and exploring all the messy material that we can find! Our playful and child-led approach allows children the freedom to explore supplies and materials at their own pace. We value the unstructured exploration this class provides for our tiniest friends over a specific product or project.
Paint + Play
ages 2.5-5
The studio will be set up with many art areas for you and your child to explore at your own pace. We typically have out paint, clay, sensory bins, cardboard boxes, drawing materials, chalk and more! This is a process-based time for children to discover and play on their own. It's a messy and marvelous time and you are bound to make new friends!
Little Artists Ages 1-5
This class is a mix of Mini Maker and Paint + Play….most all projects are the same, just a wider age range of Little Artists! We will paint, play, mix, mingle and have a messy, joy filled time!
Elementary ARTplay and Homeschool Club
Ages 6-8
Each of these class sessions is much more focused on a project or product, all the while still playing with the process! We encourage children to use their big imaginations, ideas and give them space for innovation. Our projects are centered around contemporary art, art techniques, art history, culture and PLAY!
DRAW + PAINT Ages 6-9
Hey artists that LOVE to just focus on 2-D art work…..we will be learning new skills, mediums and make some amazing works or art. Kids will experiment with pastels, watercolors, collage, acrylic and more. There will also be time for kids to explore the sensory and creative play spaces in the studio.
Build + Sculpt Ages 6-10
Kids will learn about sculpture and building by creating all things 3-D! We will look to cardboard, wood scraps, nature, recycling and clay for many of our supplies. Kids may learn about past and contemporary artists and architects, while also use their own amazing and creative ideas.
ART Exploration
Ages 7-10
These classes are more focused on techniques and skills. Kids will learn about new ways to draw, paint, sculpt and more. Projects are more product oriented, but still give kids the freedom to play with their individual styles. This 8 week class ends with a Gallery Art Show in the studio. Kids are encouraged to invite their communities!
Clay Classes Ages 6-8 & 9-12
We have a KILN and are sooooo ready to get FIRING! Kids will learn all types of handbuilding techniques from slabs to pots to the wildest animals in town. Classes are for all different age groups. See our schedule for more info
