Kids Summer Sessions

    Summer Sessions- Paint Potion Lab
    Mon, Jun 01
    The Creative Playground
    A week of hands-on creativity, bold ideas, and projects kids actually get excited about. Mix. Swirl. Transform. This is not your average painting week. We’re mixing color like mad scientists- bubbling, swirling, dripping, spraying, and discovering what happens when things don’t go as planned.
    Summer Sessions- Cardboard City
    Summer Sessions- Cardboard City
    Mon, Jun 08
    The Creative Playground
    From boxes to a full-blown city. This week, we’re handing kids real tools (yes, including the chomp saw) and letting them build something big. Houses, shops, strange structures, moving parts- using real architectural ideas like balance, shape, and function to build your own mini world.
    Summer Sessions- Puppet Factory
    Summer Sessions- Puppet Factory
    Mon, Jun 15
    The Creative Playground
    Make it. Bring it to life. This isn’t just crafts—it’s character creation. This week, the kids will design and build their own puppets (from classic to completely unhinged), create a stage, paint backdrops, and develop mini performances.
    Summer Sessions- Charm School
    Summer Sessions- Charm School
    Mon, Jun 22
    The Creative Playground
    More is more. Welcome to Charm School, where taste is questionable (on purpose) and creativity runs the show. This week, the kids will design their own bracelets, necklaces, and accessories from our fully stocked jewelry bar.
    Summer Sessions- Sweet Treat Studio

    The Creative Playground
    Design Your Own Delights Looks delicious. (Mostly not edible.) We’re turning sweets into art. This week the kids will decorate gourmet cookies, design over-the-top fake cakes with piping and “icing,” and create their own candy-inspired creations.
    Summer Sessions- Tiny Directors Studio
    Summer Sessions- Tiny Directors Studio
    Mon, Jul 06
    The Creative Playground
    Lights. Camera. Tiny. This week the kids become directors for the week- creating characters, building sets, and bringing their ideas to life frame by frame. We’ll use paper, cardboard, and Legos to create short stop-motion films, learning how to tell a story through movement, scene, and detail.
    Summer Sessions- Fashion Lab
    Summer Sessions- Fashion Lab
    Mon, Jul 13

    Make something worth wearing. This week is all about bold choices. Kids will design and create wearable pieces—statement hats, accessories, and soft-sculpture fashion using fabric, trims, and unexpected materials.
    Summer Sessions-  Saltwater Studio

    Mon, Jul 27
    The Creative Playground
    Build it. Layer it. Bring it to life. This week is when things get big. Using paper mâché, kids will create bold sculptures—masks, creatures, oversized forms, and anything else their imagination cooks up. We’ll layer, shape, paint, and transform simple materials into something totally unexpected.
