Concept

Young artists discover the power of wondering, investigating, and imagining the world in new ways. Each day, we meet a real-life scientist who followed their curiosity to make amazing discoveries. We learn about Rosalind Franklin, who used light to explore the building blocks of life; George Washington Carver, who saw beauty and possibility in every plant; and Mae Jemison, who dreamed of the stars—and reached them. We keep stories simple, visuals vibrant, and conversations open-ended, inviting children to see science as a playful, creative adventure. Through storytelling, hands-on experiments, and art-making, children become the scientists of their own world—asking questions, making discoveries, and sharing what they see.

Fall Art Break

Emily Katebini

Tuition $375
Code ZFK4201-26

Join for a single day or the whole week! Bugs and Birds: Life Below and Above! From the tiniest beetle tunneling underground to the highest hawk circling overhead, this week takes young artists on a journey through every layer of life on Earth. We start low, sculpting clay bugs and building tiny dioramas of the hidden world beneath the rug, in the dirt, and under fallen logs. Then we climb upward, painting layered skyscapes and crafting birds, bats, and bugs that take to the air. Along the way, we study real creatures- their shapes, colors, and camouflage - and use them as inspiration for our own imaginative critters. By the end of the week, we’ve built a whole ecosystem of artwork from the ground up to the clouds! REGISTRATION: If you are interested in registering for single days, please reach out to our Registration Department at [email protected] or call 970-924-5089.
