Monday: Family Art Hour online [Recommended for Ages 3-7 with parent or guardian]

Family Art Hour is now online.  This class will provide families a studio experience from their own home. All lessons will be led by our Teaching Artist Anusha Saran and allow you and your children to socialize with other students in the class. You must have internet on a device with a built in camera to participate.The National Endowment for the Arts research has shown that children who get early arts enrichment education do profoundly better academically, socially and civically.  Children exposed to arts at a young age have a greater chance of becoming creative and innovative thinkers in later years. These classes introduce preschool and kindergarten artists to different media like drawing, painting, and sculpture projects to build skills with exposure to a wide range of techniques, all balanced with imaginative art making.
