kids' birthday parties
We have teachers that can tailor a party to suit your child's interest or we have projects already prepared that you can choose from. Most of the birthday parties that we've hosted are painting parties -- for younger kids we recommend acrylic painting, older kids like to do watercolors.
For example ... Recently, we had a seven-year-old birthday painting party. The kids painted Black Labs, which the birthday girl choose based on her favorite family pet. For a different party, the birthday boy wanted to paint a fox so we happily obliged!
The parties are created with age, skill level, etc. in mind so that everyone leaves having had fun, feeling successful and very encouraged!
The price for the parties is minimum $175 for 8 kids, the price goes up $20 for each additional child. This fee includes room rental for 3 hours, art supplies, teacher-led project the first 2 hours and then the additional hour is for your cake, ice cream, pizza ... whatever you choose to provide.
Email Donna for more info or to schedule your party!
