Join us in Artopia: NCM Creative Studios after school for hands-on, project-based art-making designed for growing creatives. 

Our four-week Afterschool Art Series invites young artists ages 8–13 to explore materials, techniques, and ideas through guided, imaginative projects. Each session encourages experimentation and creative problem-solving while building confidence in the studio. 

Students will work with a variety of art processes such as papermaking, printmaking, drawing, and mixed media, learning how artists use materials, images, and storytelling to communicate ideas. Sustainability is woven throughout the program, with opportunities to reuse and repurpose materials in thoughtful, creative ways. 

Inspired by contemporary art and installations at The New Children’s Museum, participants will develop technical skills and personal expression while creating meaningful, one-of-a-kind artworks to take home. 

These programs are four-week series designed as small-group experiences with limited enrollment, created for: 

• Ages 8-10 / Grades 3-5 | Mondays| 4 pm – 6 pm  

• Ages 11-13 / Grades 6-8 | Wednesday | 4pm – 6pm
