Your gift helps bring the Power of Art to everyone in our community!
Programs take place on the second Tuesday of the month, 1 – 3:30 pm. Participants may register for any number of classes.
Participants will enhance their critical thinking, communication, and visual literacy skills as they explore the galleries and complete a hands-on art project each month. This program is designed specifically for aspiring homeschool artists ages 5-12.
