YOUTH CLASSES
Wearing a mask in the museum is optional. All classes are limited in size and offered in a socially distanced setting. When children get a chance to express their creativity and dive into art, they develop confidence, increase their empathy, and discover how to look at the world from different perspectives. All those skills help prepare students to take on the world with passion and creativity. Treat your child, grandchild, or friend to a gift of art! |
Spring 2023 Youth Class registration is open!
See Session 1 classes below Starting January 9th through February 24th.
