Summer Art Program
Classes are created for children ages 5 – 12.Each class involves an array of activities based upon a theme. Some classes, will be a new project each day, but most are cumulative. In those cases it would be best to plan on attending each day of that class. Each day there will be a break where kids create their own snack with given ingredients. They will be healthy snacks and please advise me of any allergies. All materials provided upon enrollment.
We hope to see you there!
