Kids Art Classes
We offer art classes for ages 2-11
The classes here are organized by days of the week, Mondays first, Sunday last so you can easily find classes on a particular day. We do not prorate for missed classes.
Some of our classes focus on mediums from drawing, printmaking, ceramics to textiles and soft sculpture to process art classes for little ones and some on themes such as Animals or Under the Sea or Fairylands. Our Process classes follow the seasons for making art.
We are very thoughtful with the age limits for our classes and work hard to create projects that are age appropriate. Please respect our age restrictions.
If your child is on the spectrum or has a learning challenge, please reach out to us to discuss whether we are a good fit before registering
We are offering a mini class session in December, each 2 week long class kids work on one onging project.
