UPDATED: May 3, 2020

Thank you for your interest in this year’s: Creative Arts Workshop. As many of you know, we have had to make many changes during these last weeks…here are some special details to know:


FREE CLASSES: The few classes that are “free, instruction / materials only” may be shared as far reaching as you wish. We encourage you to enjoy tweaking the ideas to create your own, new twists—and letting us know more great ways we can add to our recipe list. Please note: Adult supervision and assistance will be needed for projects.

KITS: The “kits” are designed with instructions and materials for one student. Please know that you may purchase as many kits as you wish this year—you are not restricted to only 4 classes / kits, as a normal 3-hour class session would take place. Please note: Adult supervision and assistance will be needed for projects.

MAGIC CLASS: Also designed for one student, but limited with space, is the “Magical Mystery Tour” class. The kit is designed for one student—and the class is limited to only 40 students. This class also is going to be an online / internet class, which means by signing up for it we ask that a parent be present in the room during the presentation for the sake of internet permission…but not listening to the trick for the sake of surprise!

We hope that everyone will enjoy this year’s format with respect to current environmental situations. As much as we would love to all be together, we appreciate that you are taking advantage of this service to enjoy some outreach activities and fun with the family.
