AFTER SCHOOL program

We all need a break from instruction from time to time. Let your kids be the boss! Their imagination comes alive with exciting reuse materials, and time and space to explore. Your child enjoys a moment to catch up on homework, a hands-on group activity, some practical tool and technique instructions, and then self-directed but guided art time. Emphasis on learning and process, with long-term finished pieces to take home.
