Activity Description:
Join us for a series of Community Expressive Arts Events — where every day brings something new! From painting and clay sculpting to music, movement, and storytelling, these events are designed to spark creativity and connection for children and families of all ages.
Because each event is unique, activities and locations will vary, giving families across the community opportunities to engage, explore, and express themselves through art.
At these workshops, your child may:
Explore hands-on projects like clay, painting, or collage
Create music or movement pieces inspired by imagination
Join in group art experiences that celebrate creativity and community
Discover new ways to express feelings and build confidence through the arts
