“The earth laughs in flowers.” – Ralph Waldo Emerson. Your child will learn how to create a one-of-a-kind flower painting using a variety of fun techniques including texture, shape, color, paints, mixed media, and more! Tuition fee includes one canvas and all materials. Please wear older clothing or bring a smock. All abilities welcome! (Instruction will be adapted to the unique needs/abilities of the child.)

Please join us for snuggly, winter storytime with your grown-up as we read The Bear Snores On, written by Karma Wilson and illustrated by Jane Chapman. We will also enjoy pretend play, flannel board games, a craft, snack and a sensory experience. Please bring your favorite Teddy Bear or stuffed animal for storytime and dress in old clothes for painting (or bring an oversized t-shirt/smock to protect clothing). Class is open to youth ages 3-5 with an accompanying adult. Tuition fee includes all materials.

Art and poetry go hand in hand - and provide students with the perfect outlet for creative expression! In Session 1, we will use acrylics on canvas to cleverly create the characters from the poem, Greedy Cat and the Goldfish, by Joy Cowley. In Session 2, we will use oil pastels and watercolors on watercolor paper to create a mug of hot cocoa based on the tongue-twister poem, Baby’s Drinking Song, by James Kirkup. Each participant should wear clothes that can get messy (or bring an oversized t-shirt smock to protect clothing). Tuition fee includes all materials.
