Kids Art Class

Come join us for a weekly art class! 

Each week has an art history theme. All lessons have options of varying difficulty which provides a challenge, while being inclusive to a range of skills and ages 3 and up. Parents are welcome to participate, watch from the sidelines, or hang in the cafe. If you are a parent who would like a set of your own materials, please sign up for an “additional child” spot. Please dress children in clothes you don’t care about. I have large t-shirts to use as smocks but accidents happen!

The 6-week session is preferred, as part of the lesson could be used to finish the previous project (painting the pottery fired from the week before, etc.) however, stand-alone lessons are completely welcome. We will have plenty of crafts to span the entire class! 

  • First child - $20

  • Additional child - $10 each

  • Parents can join in on the fun by adding an “additional child” spot
