One of our wonderful parents is a very accomplished artist, and she is opening up her home this summer to teach children some of her techniques! All the info is right here, take a look!
Mansi Bhatia, a local artist and LAPP mom, is opening up the doors to her backyard studio overlooking the Adobe Creek for two exciting Summer Workshops!
-- "Monoprinting with My Mini-Me" is a 90-minute hands-on, parent-child workshop filled with color and creativity. We will be using a gel plate, child-safe acrylic paints and our imaginations to make wrapping paper and bookmarks. There are four sessions to choose from and each $50 registration ticket admits one parent-child pair. If you wish to bring an additional parent or child, extra individual tickets may be purchased for $25 per person. This workshop is for children between the ages of 4-6 years and one parent.

-- "Explore, Discover, Create" will be held July 22-26, 10 am to 12:30 pm. In this half-day drop-off camp for children in grades 2-6, we will explore techniques for stamp-creation, portrait-transfers, collage-making and abstract-printing using a gel plate and various mediums, including acrylics, alcohol inks and fabric paints. Students will work with different substrates, including tissue paper, card stock, wood and shrink plastic. Price: $60 per Module; $300 for entire session. Individual modules may be purchased. All materials will be provided. 4 seats remain. More details here: bit.ly/Summerartcamp
