Last weeks Art Camp was a blast! Here’s a glimpse at how and what we create.

Another fun and productive open studio at Art Gecko. Today was a great day of making art, swapping stories, sharing books to read, munching carrot raisin ‘bread’, and making art. If you missed us this week, feel free to join us next Monday from 8-11. Check the website for all the details and to RSVP.

Yesterday’s open studio was a productive one. We look forward to seeing you next week. Monday from 8-11 am.

☀️🎨 Summer Art Camp fun continues next week!

We’re still accepting registrations for both our Older Kids Summer Art Camp and our Mini Art Camp for ages 4–6. If your artist wants to jump in for a week of color, creativity, and hands‑on projects, now’s the perfect time!

To register, visit artgeckostudio.org/upcoming-events and click on the week of June 15th.
✨ You only need to register for the first day of the session you want — that automatically enrolls your artist for the full week.

Can’t make next week? No worries! We have other summer sessions available too. Join us for one… or come back for more!

We’re so excited for a summer filled with creativity, imagination, and messy fun! 💛🎨

🎉🎨 July is almost fully booked — and August is filling fast too!

We even have people already reserving dates for 2027, so if you’ve been thinking about hosting a birthday party, ladies’ night, couples’ night, or a fun friends’ get‑together, now is definitely the time to reach out.

Our calendar fills quickly, and we’d love to save your perfect date before it’s gone.
✨ Contact us sooner rather than later to secure your spot!

☀️🎨 Summer has officially begun — and so has our 10th Annual Summer Art Camp!

We kick off our first session Monday, June 8th, and our older‑kids camp is already sold out! But good news — we still have 4 spots left in our Mini Summer Art Camp for ages 4–6.

If you’d like to grab one of those last spots, please email [email protected] by 11 PM on Sunday, June 7th.
Use the subject line: Mini Art Camp – June 9 & 11

We can’t wait to create with your little artists on Monday! 💛🎨
