Pick from a variety of painting projects, or have a painting project specially designed to fit the theme of your party. Each participant will be provided with a canvas, acrylic paints, brushes, an easel and an apron. Please have party guests wear "art clothes" (something that can get a little messy just in case).

Clay Creation Party
Working with clay is a highly rewarding experience for children and encourages exploration and experimentation! Pick from a variety of clay projects or have a clay project specially designed for your parties theme. To see the clay projects that are currently available, click on the "clay projects" link below. Party guests will be guided by an art expert in sculpting the selected project. Each participant will be provided with clay, tools and an apron. Please have the party guests wear "art clothes" (something that can get a little messy just in case). We will use a wet glazing process to apply color to the sculptures. The ceramic sculptures will then need to be fired in the kiln. Because clay takes a week to fully dry, projects will be ready for pick up two weeks after the party date.
Clay Creation Parties are priced as follows:
$225 Base Fee, $14 per participant for supplies.
In case of instrutor illness or other emergency, we can offer you two solutions. We can try to find a qualified substitute to lead the party, or we can reschedule for a later date. In either case, we will offer the party for 20% off the original total cost.
