YOUTH CLASSES

​Until further notice, all participants are required to wear a mask while in the building.
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!
