Explore, Create, Connect: A Monthly Art Experience for Little Ones

Join us on the last Thursday of every month for an engaging and hands-on art-making experience designed for children under the age of 5.

In this inclusive program, young participants will explore a variety of art materials and processes that foster creativity, self-expression, and early learning. Using safe, non-toxic materials, children will engage in activities that promote fine and gross motor skills, sensory awareness, and imaginative play.

In line with our commitment to building a vibrant community through the arts, this program provides a welcoming space for families to connect, collaborate, and share in the joy of creativity. We invite parents and guardians to bring their little ones under the age of 5 to explore art-making with non-toxic materials in this fun and social program that encourages creative self-expression while developing fine and gross motor skills and sensory awareness. Make sure you dress for the mess as all are invited to join in on the fun!

Parents must accompany their children during this event.
