Painted Dance Floor, Stickers & Summer Send-Off! Join our last Summer Sessions of the year and celebrate with us using color, movement, and creative reflection. This weekend is one big joyful goodbye to summer – let's make it memorable!  

This week in Artopia, artists will: 

• Groove and paint on a collaborative floor mural! Move your body to music and leave your mark on our Artopia dance floor (be prepared to get a little messy!) 

• Create Upcycled Envelopes and Postcards by transforming past summer artworks into thoughtful notes to share with loved ones. 

• At the Tabletop Sketchbook, design your own self-symbols — then turn your favorite designs into custom stickers to wear, share, or decorate your creations. 

• Learn from our teaching artists who are playful guides ready to spark curiosity and nurture confidence. 

• All materials included.  

Dedicated Toddler Area: 

• Play with musical sounds — clap, shake, and explore rhythm with sensory-friendly instruments designed for little ones. 

• Explore a play area with books, foam blocks, soft mats, and building toys to support creative and safe exploration 

During this Summer Session, you will make art to take home and contribute to collaborative projects that will shape our evolving studio space!
