Kentuck's Kids Studios: 2023

We are expanding our programming to include a variety of one hour classes for children ages 2-8, in a variety of categories. These classes will be in accord with the visual arts standards for the state of Alabama. Every Saturday will feature a different art themed activity with 2 opportunities to register. Each class is one hour but sign up for both and enjoy 2 hours of creative play. This is an opportunity for younger children ages 2-8 to play, explore and learn what the arts have to offer. Children need to be accompanied by an adult during our Saturday sessions.
