SUMMER ART CLASS REGISTRATION
by Local.
PARENTS AND THEIR CHILDREN can explore available camps for the upcoming summer and sample art projects at the Kidcreate Studio open house on April 22, from 11 a.m. through 1:30 p.m. Featuring on-site registration, parents have the opportunity to sign up their children for summer camps on the spot. The event will also host small art projects for the kids— including clay and paper crafts. “Last year, we had watermelons to paint and turn into maracas,” says Nicole Pierce, studio manager.
Available classes will be held all summer, from the time school ends in June through Labor Day in September. Parents unable to attend the event can also explore KidCreate Studio’s vast offerings online. Ages and pricing are listed for all classes, which typically consist of 12–15 attendees but may include up to 25 attendees. —Nicole Berglund
