Art Explorers Club

When FUN is the motivation, LEARNING is the result! We specialize in art-based enrichment activities for kids that nurture creativity, fine motor development, brain development and social skills while having fun!

Guided and Mommy & Me classes run in 6-week "explorations" (sessions) and include all supplies, professional instruction, social time, and hours of creative learning, friendship and fun! *Classes now forming in the Perkasie area for Spring/Summer 2025.  See our current schedule below.

2 Dates:  FRIDAY May 2 OR SATURDAY May 3, 2025 - 11:30 - 2:30PM

We will be painting creating and celebrating with a beautiful Flowering Spring Cactus on an 8 x 10 stretched canvas or on painted rocks!

The flowering cactus represents resilience and endurance, showcasing inner strength in adapting to change and harsh environments in overcoming challenges.  Cactus flowers symbolize patience, compassion and timeless knowledge passed down through generations. This is a perfect description of so many moms that we know, and we hope that you will join us to honor all the moms (and mom figures) in our lives!

Come join us for some Fun Art Exploration!
