  • Immerse yourself in creativity with our month-long Creative Connection art sessions, featuring four engaging classes designed for deeper learning and exploration. Each session will allow our children to explore and engage with the world around them through place based learning. Children will grow as individuals & community members all while honing in on their artistic journey.

    Every month we focus on a specific medium, allowing participants to dive deep into their craft. Alongside our classes, we organize a community-based field trip and a hike, integrating the beauty of nature with your artistic journey.

    To celebrate your progress, we conclude each session with a small art exhibition that parents are encouraged to attend, showcasing the creations of our talented participants. Join us to build skills, connect with others, and unleash your creativity!
