After School Programs
for schools and organizations
Our after-school art classes are the perfect way for children to end their school day! Engaging in hands-on art activities gives children critical sensory input and allows them to process their day while having fun. We offer several themed classes that range from small projects that can be completed in one session to larger projects, like our DIY dollhouses, that inspire weeks of creativity.
