Kid’s Art Classes
Join us for a Fall, Winter, or Spring Session
Kid’s After School Classes
An 8-10wk session is offered Fall, Winter and Spring, depending on how many holidays land in that session. All classes encourage exploration while sharing techniques and skills to form a solid base of understanding for the subject being covered.
Students under 9yo are welcome in 1-day workshops!
Home School Classes Home schooled kids are welcome to join any of our after school kids classes. View the classes offered above or contact us if you have 8 or more students in the same age range who would like to take a class. We can possibly schedule something for your group specifically.
Parent & Child
1-day workshops held year-round!

Family Clay Sculpting: A new project every month! The guided project has ample room for customization and creativity, so independent thinkers can take the project in where they choose.
The price includes one hand-sculpted piece per person. All ages are welcome, but if the child is 5 or under, parent & child can choose to sculpt a single piece together.
NOTE: This is NOT a wheel throwing class. The wheel is recommended for kids 9+.
Family Pottery Wheel: This crash course on the pottery wheel includes a demonstration, about an hour on the wheel, some time for clean up, and at least one piece finished and fired per person. Extras may be kept for $5 each. Create side by side and have a blast making something that you can eat your snacks out of or drink from!
NOTE: 9 yo+ only. Smaller bodies have a difficult time on the wheel, and we don’t want one’s first experience with the wheel to be frustrating simply because of body size!
Family Art Workshops: The subjects change throughout the seasons, but we will host parent & child painting classes, sensory play for littles 5 and under, and mosaic classes for older kids. Click the link to see what is coming up.
