PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
Summer is finally here, and we are excited for the start of our summer youth art program, Art Adventures! This year’s Art Adventures will run from Wednesday, July 3rd until Thursday, August 22nd, featuring eight weekly 2-hour-long classes for children ages 6–8 and 9–11.
Our program offers a fun, non-competitive, and non-outcome-based space where kids can explore and develop foundational artistic skills, fostering imagination and inspiration. We are thrilled to have Carson Thorson, licensed K-12 art teacher, return to lead this program once again this year!
This class will take place in Central Square’s Art Studio, Room 209 on the second floor. Accessible doors and an elevator are available.
Need-based scholarships are available; contact us for details.
