January kicks off a season of celebrating the inner artist in 2-17 year
olds! Consider enrolling your child in our Kidzart, abrakadoodle,
young rembrandts, or Film Making art
programs. These programs include
interesting subjects that will stretch your
child’s imagination.
If your child likes to get their hands dirty,
enroll them in our children’s pottery
classes. In our Fairytale Fantasy, Storybook Sculpture, or Beginning
Hand Building class children make their very own special clay
projects. These fun clay programs are for children ages 2½-17.
If your child likes being in the kitchen, enroll him or her in our
children’s cooking classes. Food Made Fun for 2-5 year olds or
Winter Whimsey for 5-9 year olds make cooking fun for kids. For
more information on these great new programs, call 303-471-8853.
Tumbling is a wonderful opportunity for your child to develop
important gross motor skills, coordination, balance, flexibility, and
the ability to listen and follow instructions. This month we are
adding some new equipment to the tumbling room; including a
springboard, a half-beam, and a climbing rope. Be sure to enroll
your children during the winter months so they can burn some
energy and learn new skills. We have also added cheer classes and
a baton twirling classes to give your child a chance to try something
new. For more information, call 303-471-8818.
Start the new year on the right foot and make a resolution to tap
into your creative side! We offer a variety of classes for both you
and your child to stimulate creativity.
For your 1-4 year old, try our new nursery rhyme class, where
children make a special craft for each nursery rhyme. Or try our
new Bubbles class where children will receive a special copy of
The Great Bubble Adventure book. For your 8-11 year old, try a
Creative Canvas class. The January theme "Collage" gives children
a creative outlet and a fun way to express themselves.
If you’re looking for something new and creative for you and a
friend, we have a variety of classes to consider. For adults only, we
are offering Mud and Mimosas pottery
class on Saturdays, Wine Dezign pottery
class on Fridays, Merlot and Monet
art classes on Thursdays, and a Corks
and Forks class on Thursdays. Our
new Watercolor series will have you
painting like a master. If getting on the
dance floor sounds fun, try our new Ladies Only dance class on
Thursdays.
Whatever sparks your interest, grab a friend and give something
new a try! For more information, call 303-471-8928.
