ART ADVENTURES SERIES

"Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once we grow up."

- Pablo Picasso

YPW wants to keep the artist in every child alive and growing. So please enroll your young person in one of our fun and hands-on Art workshops and watch his/her inner artist develop!


Max 12 young people per workshop.

Programs
Petite Picasso: Ages 2 to 3
It is never too early (or to late) to learn and create!
Side-by-side, you and your preschooler will discover the ways in which master artists Picasso and Mondrian used shape and color in their art pieces. Together, you will both create your very own masterpieces exploring some of the processes of painting, sculpture and print making. Your work will be showcased at Gallery Night at the end of workshop.
