Unlock your creative potential in this small class with plenty of room for individual instruction and originality. With a lot of color and fun we'll design 2- and 3- dimensional art projects using a variety of materials including clay and paint. The art projects will explore the creative learning process, enriching everyone's ability to observe and problem-solve. Each class will also incorporate movement and a snack break whether through a visit to our ever changing gallery, or a creative game. 

This program is an excellent preparation for more advanced art classes, including Art Explorers for grades 2–3!
