We invite you and your kiddo to come and explore your creative side and enjoy learning to paint with watercolors! We will be painting different animals as we turn the chapter into 2025!

We always encourage artists, young and old, to make your art uniquely YOURS. No experience necessary!

This paint party will have watercolor painting as the main activity with fun take-home treats and coloring sheets!

This class is for artists age 6 and up. Parents are encouraged to paint with their child, and tickets are available for non-participating parents as well. Of course guardians, grandparents, or friends are absolutely welcome to join in on the fun.

We offer quality instruction so that everyone feels relaxed, supported, and have fun throughout the course of the lesson. Our teaching style is to keep things flexible so all artists can embellish and express themselves, and at the end of the class it is so much fun so see how unique and personal each painting is - a reflection of each person's individuality!
