WEEKLY ART CLASSES

Each week the class will feature multiple hands-on activities that allow kiddos the opportunity to draw, paint, stamp, and design with a number of unique materials. Your eager young artist is guaranteed to have a lot of fun and will leave with several completed projects, and more than likely colorful, dirty hands! The class is primarily intended for children ages 4-6. The class fee is $20 a week and payment for the entire month is preferred on or before the first class each month. However, I am also fine with parents paying on a week to week basis.
