SATURDAY MORNING FUN IN THE NEW YEAR!

This winter we are offering two classes to perk up your Saturday mornings!  For our younger friends we will have Playful Poetry with Poet Lindo and Ms. Jessica.  Using art and writing, children in grades K-4 will explore and learn to express themselves with their poetry toolkit!

And for grades 5-8, we are are delighted to partner with Youth Design Philly to offer an introduction to interior design!  Learn about what designers do and try your hand at creating beautiful spaces.
 

More information and registration soon -- watch your inbox!

Art at Home

Winter is here officially on December 21 -- celebrate with snowflakes! With simple supplies, enjoy experimenting with different shapes and sizes.

Find round items to trace (cans work well) and then cut out the circles.

Fold in half, in half again, and then in half one more time.

Cut shapes from the sides and top edge. Try triangles, squares or half circles.

Carefully unfold and see your unique snowflake! You can glue them to colored paper for cards or thread yarn through the holes to hang up and decorate your home for the holidays!

Thank you to our wonderful community for all your care and support this year.  We hope you have a peaceful and healthy holiday season and look forward to seeing everyone in 2021!
