We create a space where kids can slow down, feel confident in trying new things, and work through challenges. For many kids, \u201cI don\u2019t know how!\u201d becomes an opportunity to practice perseverance, problem-solving, and independent thinking. The class also fosters social interaction, giving kids a chance to share ideas, collaborate, and make decisions about their own artwork.<\/p>\n
ART CLASS:<\/strong>\u00a0 Our Art classes include painting, drawing, and hands-on building, using high-quality materials like liquid watercolors, rich chalk and oil pastels, tempera and acrylic paints, and unique surfaces\u2014no crayons or googly eyes here! We encourage creative risk-taking, teaching kids how to troubleshoot, deconstruct, and try new approaches. With a mix of guided projects and open-ended creative prompts, our experienced instructors ensure a balanced approach that nurtures both technique and personal expression.<\/p>\n POTTERY CLASS:\u00a0<\/strong> Our Pottery classes offer hands-on experiences that teach kids how to shape, mold, and explore the world of clay. Starting with a ball of clay, kids will learn to build both functional and sculptural pieces, as well as an introduction to the pottery wheel. Kids also learn about surface decoration through the use of texture tools learn glazing techniques.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][\/mk_page_section][mk_page_section bg_color=”#e1f3f4″ full_width=”true” el_class=”testi_holder” sidebar=”sidebar-1″][vc_column width=”1\/6″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”4\/6″][vc_column_text]\n .<\/p>\n [vc_empty_space][vc_custom_heading text=”START HERE!” font_container=”tag:h1|text_align:center” use_theme_fonts=”yes” css_animation=”fadeInLeft” css=””][vc_custom_heading text=”Convenient Options to Fit Every Schedule” font_container=”tag:h2|text_align:center” use_theme_fonts=”yes” css_animation=”none” css=””][vc_custom_heading text=”From ongoing weekly classes, to drop ins, to special workshops!” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:center” use_theme_fonts=”yes” css=””][\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/6″][\/vc_column][\/mk_page_section][mk_page_section bg_color=”#e1f3f4″ full_width=”true” el_class=”testi_holder” sidebar=”sidebar-1″][vc_column width=”1\/5″][mk_flipbox front_background_color=”#757575″ back_background_color=”#45bfd1″ icon_type=”icon” icon=”mk-icon-calendar-o” icon_size=”32″ icon_color=”#45bfd1″ front_title=”WEEKLY ART OR POTTERY CLASSES” front_title_color=”#ffffff” back_title=”WEEKLY ART OR POTTERY CLASSES” back_title_size=”16″ back_title_color=”#ffffff” back_desc=”Your child can get the most out of their experience when they attend weekly!
