HOLIDAY WORKSHOPS

JAN PROGRAM OPEN!

Our popular Holiday Program is jam-packed with creative workshops designed to spark imagination, encourage exploration, and build new skills — all while having loads of fun and making new friends!

Each workshop offers a rich variety of art processes and techniques inspired by artists, styles, and themes from around the world. Children can immerse themselves in drawing, painting, ceramics, sculpting, textiles, and mixed media, with opportunities to try traditional art forms while developing their own unique creative style.

During break times, artists are free to explore our art stations, games, and Creative Play studio — adding extra fun, spontaneity and a chance to relax and recharge.

Every day of the program features a new theme, artist, or source of inspiration. Artists will bring home one main artwork, and depending on their pace and personal style, may also create additional pieces such as inspirational sketches or design studies. We encourage children to take all their creations home, although some may choose to leave pre-sketches behind.

We also welcome artist input! If your child has photos or reference images they’d like to use, they are more than welcome to bring them along.

Join us for an inspiring, supportive, and joy-filled creative experience these holidays!
