KIDSTREET
YOUNG ARTISTS BECOME EXPLORERS
as they investigate a variety of
media and creative processes. We present opportunities for students to
develop critical thinking skills, enhance creativity, and build confidence in a
historical, artistic community. Students are encouraged to discover their own
artistic interests while refining technical abilities.
Kidstreet classes are kept small and
taught by talented teaching artists.
5-week sessions provide a perfect
opportunity for new artists to join
and continuing students to explore
the materials with new challenges and
projects.

Explore building basics with shapes,
lines, and even letters to create both
2D and 3D projects out of clay, paint,
