February 24 through April 4
Mini Masters of Art
Our fun and exciting art classes for toddlers
engage children in art explorations that include drawing, painting, sculpture,
printmaking, and collage. The purpose is to build a basic knowledge of art
materials and how they work, while developing problem solving skills and
providing an opportunity for creative expression. The studio space is organized
in centers, allowing the children to work at their own pace with their parents
or caregivers. In addition to the art projects, children will interact with one
another as they play with art related developmental toys. Classes will wind down
with a story that correlates with the art concept for the day. One adult must
stay and participate with the child.
